Many mycorrhizosphere microorganisms can produce
plant growth regulating compounds in vitro. Plant growth
regulating compounds are known to mediate root growth and
development. In reforestation practices, conifer tree
seedling growth and survival are linked to rapid root
growth and development after outplanting. Multifactorial
experiments were conducted to document variations in...
