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. Reference: Dietterich, L. H., Gonneau, C. and Casper, B. B. in press. Arbuscular mycorrhizal colonization has little consequence for plant heavy metal uptake in contaminated field soils. Ecological Applications doi:10.1002/eap.1573
