SUMMARY Onions were preinfected with seven Endogone spore types and red clover with five spore types and then grown in P deficient, 32 P labelled soils. P uptake was much greater in most mycorrhizal plants than in controls. Specific activities of absorbed P were almost identical in all mycorrhizal and control plants.
