| Abstract: | Summary In comparison to cassava grown in monoculture the root infection of cassava with vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhiza was increased by crop rotation with grain legumes in the field. This was also found when cassava was intercropped with legumes and fertilized. A possible specificity of mycorrhizal fungi to increase the yield of one species more than the other when grown in association, is discussed. |
