Abstract

TUSSOCK GRASSLAND SOILS contain abundant coarse and fine VA endophytes. Rhizophagus tenuis is more prominent in high-altitude soils. This species is an effkieat symbiont with 'a variety of grasses but only under extreme phosphate deficiency; otherwise this endophyte may depress growth, probably by competing with its host for phosphorus.
