What does the published scientific research say about Rhizophagus aggregatus?

Source: PubMed and scientific literature databases

Rhizophagus aggregatus — also listed as Glomus aggregatum and Rhizoglomus aggregatum — appears in 8 PubMed articles examining its function as an arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus. The indexed literature spans Cannabis sativa, maize, sunchoke, tamarind, faba bean, and patchouli across greenhouse and field settings.

In Cannabis sativa, peer-reviewed research reports that R. aggregatus inoculation produced the highest plant biomass and cannabinoid concentrations — including CBD and THC — among all treatments, including both unfertilized and NPK-fertilized controls. A separate hemp fiber study found the strongest gains in cellulose, acid detergent fiber, and CBD content when R. aggregatus was paired with the endophytic fungus Lasiodiplodia theobromae.
