Use this mycology utility to record or consistently classify a stated fungal morphology, culture, ecology, assay, cultivation, or microscopy observation for later expert review.

Colonized segments

Required integer input.

Total segments

Required integer input.

Computes arbuscular mycorrhizal colonization as a percentage of viewed root segments. The tool evaluates the supplied inputs together and returns the named outputs below; it does not infer omitted operating conditions or change the units shown.^[1]

Colonization percent (%)

The resulting colonization percent returned as a number.

• Fungal identification and susceptibility interpretation depend on specimen quality, developmental stage, medium, temperature, microscopy, molecular evidence, validated breakpoints, and taxonomic context. Pattern-based output is not an edibility, toxicity, infection, or treatment determination.
• Use finite inputs in the displayed units and preserve more precision than the final presentation requires. Independently verify safety-critical, financial, compliance, or production decisions.

Preserve images, specimen and culture metadata, method and reference standard, use multiple characters or molecular confirmation, and refer clinical or poisoning questions to qualified services.

• Chitin Assay Recorder

  Validate and record measured chitin as a percentage of dry weight without imposing universal bands that vary by material and assay method.

• Vesicle Tally

  Calculate the arithmetic mean number of observed vesicles per viewed root segment from a total count and segment count.

• Amphotericin B Breakpoint Mapper

  Map an amphotericin B MIC to susceptible, intermediate, or resistant using explicitly supplied thresholds. No universal CLSI amphotericin B breakpoint is assumed; use criteria applicable to the organism, method, and current reporting standard.
