Does the Slope Aspect Really Affect the Soil Chemical Properties, Growth and Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Colonization of Centipedegrass in a Hill Pasture?

Grasses
Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi (AMF) form a symbiotic association with terrestrial plants and increase growth and productivity. The relationships between the growth of centipedegrass (CG) and AMF are not well understood. We monitored the growth and AM
