Mycorrhizae and plant metal uptake

File “Dietterich et al myco-metal data
for figshare 170521.csv” contains data on plant and soil metal concentrations
and plant root colonization by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). Samples were collected in 2012 in portions of
the Palmerton Zinc Superfund Site (Palmerton, PA, USA) owned and managed by the
Lehigh Gap Nature or the National Park Service (Dietterich et al. in press).

File “Dietterich et al myco-metal
metadata for figshare 170521.csv” contains definitions of column headings for
the above dataset.
