Table 3.
AM fungal virtual taxa (VT) diversity at study sites—ARG, AUS, ISR, KAZ, SAU and USA. Observed richness and extrapolated values of richness, Shannon and Simpson diversity are given. Extrapolation was implemented in the iNEXT software [62]. Standard error (S.E.), lower confidence limits (LCL) and upper confidence limits (UCL).
