Abstract: | An arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus was isolated from the rhizosphere of Agrostis capillaris growing in the contaminated surroundings of a zinc refinery in The Netherlands. After examination of the infection pattern and the spores, it was characterized as Scutellospora dipurpurescens, which was first isolated from a reclaimed coal mine area in West Virginia. |
