a little better closeup of those roots,,,make note of the soil sticking to the roots and the fine hairs that are covering the main roots,,it's my belief that the "glomalin" produced in these roots shows quite clearly what it does even in dry soils. For a read on this and the research that led to it's discovery in '99 check this link:

as a side note,,this mycor if indeed these are inoculated came from one of 2 sources,,carry over in the winter rye or a bio-product I use that has a small amount or "seed treat" applied to it, in either case it makes one wonder about our overdosing the plants when burying vines.
