Figure 7From: Selectivity by host plants affects the distribution of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi: evidence from ITS rDNA sequence metadataThe relationship between the distribution of plant taxonomic order and ITS-VT across ecosystems (a), biogeographical realms (b), continents (c) and climatic zones (d). Linear regression analysis showed that ecosystem (a), biogeographical realm (b), continent (c) and climatic zone (d) with more similar plant composition had more similar ITS-VT composition. Mantel test suggested plant composition significantly correlated to ITS-VT composition among each type of biomes.Back to article page
