Effect of tree-enset-coffee based agro-forestry practices on arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) species diversity and spore density

Effect of tree-enset-coffee based agro-forestry practices on arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) species diversity and spore density

A study on arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal (AMF) spore abundance and species composition was undertaken along different tree-enset-coffee based agroforestry practices in Sidama administrative region of Southern Ethiopia. Soil samples were collected from 36 sampling points for each tree-enset-coffee co...

Zusammenfassung:A study on arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal (AMF) spore abundance and species composition was undertaken along different tree-enset-coffee based agroforestry practices in Sidama administrative region of Southern Ethiopia. Soil samples were collected from 36 sampling points for each tree-enset-coffee combinations within the nine sampling sites. The soil samples were processed for soil physicochemical properties; AMF spore abundance, AMF species composition and soil trap cultures. In tree-enset-coffee based agro-forestry practices there was significant (P
