Grains produce quickly in summer, this results in annual pulses of plant detritus each winter. AMF(Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi) and VAM(vesicular arbuscular mycorrhiza) inhabit fallen detritus through winter’s cooler season, the AMF and VAM activity during this period primes the soil for grains by hyper-activating the […]
