Microstructural changes of magnesium alloy AZ91 after fatigue loading in the EX-ECAP state were evaluated using EBSD. It was found that both the number fraction of low-angle boundaries and parameter KAM decreased after the testing at a stress amplitude of 160 MPa but started to increase with the increasing stress amplitude. This behaviour can be explained with a mutual influence of dislocation accumulation (which is stronger with a higher stress amplitude) and dynamic softening (which is weaker with a decreasing number of cycles/cycles to failure). The average grain size remained almost unchanged except at a stress amplitude of 180 MPa, which could have been caused by certain conditions allowing an ideal development of both mentioned phenomena.
