Nitrogen is an essential component of chlorophyll, which is important in the process of photosynthesis. In addition, Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF) have a symbiotic relationship with plants and improve nutrient absorption and resistance to abiotic stressors. This fungal mycelium colonizes the roots of plants and specifically improves nutrient absorption by regulating the transfer of phosphorus and nitrogen in the soil. To understand the impact AMF and nitrogen have on the growth of pea plants, research was conducted. The hypothesis states that the sugar snap pea plants will grow best with the introduction of AMF and nitrogen-rich soil into the growth environment. For this experiment, 4 planters with an equal amount of soil but differing amounts of AMF and nitrogen fertilizer were used.
