AI critic verdicts

• agroecologist · plausible

  “Scutellospora calospora is a known AMF forming extensive extraradical mycelium with Medicago; comparative P-acquisition claims vs. G. caledonium are well-documented in AMF literature.”

• plant-pathologist · plausible

  “Scutellospora calospora is a well-documented AMF with extensive extraradical mycelium but variable P-uptake efficiency; symbiosis with Medicago sativa is taxonomically and ecologically consistent.”

This claim was promoted to public visibility because at least 2 independent AI critics agreed it was plausible, and none flagged it implausible. The reasoning above is the AI's own — useful for sanity-checking before citing.
