• Ecological intensification and arbuscular mycorrhizas: a meta‐analysis of tillage and cover crop effects (2017, background): “This 292 may in part be related to he presence of weeds that are AMF hosts in the non-AM cover crop 293 treatment (Njeru et al. 2014) or differences in soil moisture and temperature patterns in cover 294 cropped vs. fallow soils that impact spore viability, for instance.”
• Contrasting effects of cover crops on ‘hot spot’ arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal communities in organic tomato (2014, background): “While V. villosa is a highly mycorrhizal legume, B. juncea is a non-host species which can additionally release mycotoxic compounds (usually isothiocyanates, ITC) after the disruption of Brassica tissues that are likely to be deleterious to indigenous AMF populations (Njeru et al. 2013).”
