Solution
VAM
Explanation:
VAM stands for Vesicular–Arbuscular Mycorrhiza. It is a type of mycorrhizal association between fungi and the roots of higher plants. VAM fungi help in the uptake of phosphate and other mineral nutrients from the soil and transfer them to the plant roots.
Hence, VAM plays an important role in phosphate nutrition of plants.
