The results of the non-parametric analysis of the homogeneity of molecular variance (HOMOVA) and AMOVA indicating the significant differences in the structure of soil (S) and root (R) AMF communities associated with P. trivialis (Pt) and Ph. australis (Pa) collected from the contaminated (K) and uncontaminated (C) sites.
