Abstract

Presents research on the ecology of interactions between plants and arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi. Discovery that the underground world is diverse and dynamic; Process of discovery; Mechanisms that might maintain fungal diversity; Implications of this diversity for ecology as a whole; Importance of AM fungi in the facilitation of plants' uptake of phosphorus.
