Experimental validation under controlled conditions of real time PCR to quantify arbuscular mycorrhizal colonization in root
Résumé
Mycorrhizal colonization of roots is traditionally evaluated by empirical methods, such as root microscopy. We compared this method with data from using a real time PCR technique, and determined the correlation between methods, indicating particularities of a promising system for a quick and accurate molecular diagnostic of arbuscular mycorrhization.
