Figure 2.
A pictorial representation of a few of the benefits provided by AMF in plant growth and yield. Increased resistance to foliar pathogens, increased drought tolerance, increased salt tolerance, enhanced defense mechanism, help in uptake of essential nutrients and bioremediation are a few of the many benefits that AMF provide in the growth and development of a plant.
