Treatments: C (control without inoculation); GA5 (Rhizophagus irregularis GA5 strain inoculation); GC2 (Rhizophagus irregularis GC2 strain inoculation); GA5 + GC2 (mixture 1 : 1 of GA5 and GC2 strains). Mycorrhizal (MI%), arbuscules (A%), and vesicles (V%) percentages. Not detectable (n.d.). Different letters in the same column indicate significant differences at ***P < 0.001, not significant (n.s.). Data represent mean values of 12 replicates ± standard error.
