AMF

Norway maple (Acer platanoides 'Royal Red') treated with AMF during planting in full soil resulted after 3 years in an increase in plant height of 19,2% and an increase in stem diameter of 12,6% compared to the untreated control. The number of dead trees increased with 80% and the number of failed graftings decreased with 57,6% compared to the control. There was no effect observed on the amount of chlorophyll, flavonols, anthocyans and the nitrogen balance index (indicative for stress responses).
