Abstracts |
Roots of 4- to- 5-year-old trees of macadamia cultivars Kau, Pahala and O.C. were collected from soil depths of 10 and 20 cm and were cut into 5- to- 10 cm-long segments. The rate of infection by arbuscular mycorrhizas (AM) varied between cultivars and was highest in roots of cv. Kau, which has higher resistance to stress conditions. Analysis of each root segment indicated that AM infected the root tips. |
