An investigation on how infection with vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (VAM) changes interactions between plants was initiated. Specifically addressed were how does the presence or absence of VAM affect: (1) a species that typically shows little or no infection; and (2) a species that typically possesses moderate levels of infection. Results show: roots for inoculated species were higher than uninoculated treatments; the above ground dry weight gain were significantly higher with inoculation. The growth response of both species suggests a fungus-to-plant interaction even though infection, as measured by arbuscules a vesicles, was not always present. 2 figures. (MF)
