Michael F. Allen

Mycorrhizal Dynamics in Ecological Systems

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

By building from plant-fungal structure-function relationships and evolution, this volume provides descriptions of how mycorrhizae work, and how to apply this knowledge to land management and global change approaches. Essential for students, researchers, and land-use managers seeking to integrate their knowledge across disciplines and scales.
