I feel that the trip was particularly successful. In my own research I have found that diverse communities of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) actually survive in the cotton cropping soils at Narrabri.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are important symbiotic partners to the majority of land plants. AMF depend on the plant community for photosynthate-derived energy.
