Mycorrhiza increase root surface area water and nutrients uptake. The use of mycorrhizal biofertilizer helps to improve higher branching of plant roots, and the mycorrhizal hyphae grow from the root to soil enabling the plant roots to contact with wider area of soil surface, hence, increasing the absorbing area for water and nutrients absorption of the plant root system. Therefore, plants with
mycorrhizal association will have higher efficiency for nutrients absorption, such as nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium, zinc, Iron, copper, Boron, Manganese and silica and also increase plant resistance to drought.
