DNA sequencing reveals high arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi diversity in the rhizosphere soil of Prunus africana trees in fragmented Afromontane forests

Abstract Purpose Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) play a key role in medicinal plant species, besides their ecological role in shaping plant communities. Knowledge about the diversity and structure of AMF communities associated with the endangered Prunus africana is valuable in the conservation an...
