Root colonization, soil population density and diversity of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi were assessed in 188 banana fields in contrasting soil types across five eco-regions in Rwanda (Butare–Gitarama, Gashonga, Bugarama, Kibungo, Ruhengeri). Root colonization was observed in all banana plan...

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi are known to improve the growth of many crops of agricultural importance. The amplitude of this growth improvement may vary depending on soil type. Here, we report the effect of the application of indigenous AM fungi, isolated from a Nitisol from Kirehe (eastern ...
