Fig. 93 Arbuscular mycorrhizal associations in fine roots of adjacent mature forest, secondary forest on abandoned cattle pasture (l6 years old), and active cattle pasture planted with Brachiaria brizantha forage grass. Each data point is the average value for six root samples, with 75 1-cm root segments stained and analyzed per sample following Phillips and Hayman (1970). Percent infection refers to the percent of each root segment s length in which fungal hyphae or arbuscles were visible.
