Arbuscular Mycorrhiza — a Key Component of Sustainable Plant-Soil Ecosystems (2012, background): “non-mycotrophic crops such as canola are grown in monoculture, there is evidence for a general decline in mycorrhizal propagules (Gavito and Miller 1998).”
Reduced tillage in temperate organic farming: implications for crop management and forage production (2010, background): “Negative effects of ploughing on AMF colonization of maize roots in field experiments were also reported by McGonigle & Miller (1996), Mozafar et al. (2000), Galvez et al. (2001), and no differences were reported by Gavito & Miller (1998).”
Forage radish and cereal rye cover crop effects on mycorrhizal fungus colonization of maize roots (2010, background): “Some studies have concluded that a rotation of Brassicaceae crops reduces subsequent AMF colonization, but these have been in comparison to a rotation of an AMF host crop rather than a fallow year (Gavito and Miller 1998a; Sorensen et al. 2005).”
First evidence for a major cover crop effect on arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and organic maize growth (2013, background): “Some studies have indicated reduced mycorrhizal colonization of the subsequent crop after the growth of a Brassica sp. (Gavito and Miller 1998; Koide and Peoples 2012) while others did not report any change (Pellerin et al. 2007; White and Weil 2010).”
