Which one of the following biofertilizer makes the plant associated with them grow luxuriantly in less irrigated lands?

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

Vesicular Arbuscular Mycorrhizae (VAM) are symbiotic associations between fungi and the roots of higher plants. The fungal hyphae extend into the soil, significantly increasing the surface area for absorption. This allows the plant to absorb water and essential nutrients, particularly phosphorus, more efficiently from the soil. Due to this enhanced water uptake capability, plants associated with VAM can grow luxuriantly even in less irrigated or drought-prone lands.
