We studied the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and dark septate fungi (DSF) in two lycopods and 23 ferns species collected from the tropical montane cloud forest in central Veracruz, Mexico. This is the first report of the mycorrhizal status for 17 species. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi were present in 11 species (44 %) which characterized by arbuscules and in a further 11 species were found with only hyphae and vesicles. The abundance of AMF in the roots varied with the species, and ranged… CONTINUE READING
