Micorrhizal fungi are found in many plant roots. The fungi aids the plant in uptake of water and nutrients, therefore increasing plant growth and overall health. A farmer is testing the effect of mycorrhizal fungi on the fruit production of the orange trees in his orchard. He plants 200 orange tree saplings in his orchard. Group A, 100 of the saplings, are planted normally. Group B, 100 saplings, are planted with mycorrhizal fungi on the roots. Once the trees reach...
