Abstract
ECTOTROPHIC mycorrhizas have often been shown to benefit the growth of their host plants, and similar results have also been found for endotrophic mycorrhizas formed by Endogone species1,2 which are widespread on agricultural crops and are of considerable importance. Several workers have concluded that these growth responses are caused by an increased uptake of phosphate from the soils and possible mechanisms have been suggested2 to account for this increased uptake. The purpose of our work was to distinguish between some of these possibilities, and we report preliminary results here.
