The term mycorrhiza refers to the role of the fungus in the plant's rhizosphere, the plant root system and its surroundings. Mycorrhizae play important roles in plant nutrition, soil biology, and soil chemistry.

Mycorrhiza is an international journal devoted to excellent research into mycorrhizas - the widest symbioses in nature, involving most plants and diverse soil fungi world-wide. Articles cover topics ranging from molecule to ecosystem, through cell and plant, from fundamental to applied science.

2025年2月7日 · Mycorrhiza, an intimate association between the branched, tubular filaments (hyphae) of a fungus (kingdom Fungi) and the roots of higher plants. The association is usually of mutual benefit (symbiotic): a delicate balance between host plant and symbiont results in enhanced nutritional support for.

2017年5月18日 · Mycorrhiza defines a (generally) mutually beneficial relationship between the root of a plant and a fungus that colonizes the plant root. In many plants, mycorrhiza are fungi that grow inside the plant’s roots, or on the surfaces of the roots.

2024年8月31日 · Mycorrhiza refers to the symbiotic association between specific fungi and plant roots, where the fungus aids in nutrient and water uptake for the plant, and in return, the plant provides the fungus with essential nutrients produced through photosynthesis.

The word “mycorrhiza” means fungal root. To be more specific, mycorrhizae are fungi that have a symbiotic relationship with the roots of many plants. The fungi which commonly form mycorrhizal relationships with plants are ubiquitous in the soil.

2024年8月22日 · Mycorrhiza is the mutualistic symbiotic association between certain kinds of fungi and the roots of vascular plants. Derived from Greek words ‘mukes’- fungus and ‘rhiza’- roots. Approximately 90% of the roots of plants were …

Mycorrhizae, meaning “fungus root,” refers to a mutualistic relationship between fungi and plant roots in most plants. While the fungus assists the plant by expanding its root surface area, the plant benefits the fungus by supplying the carbohydrates necessary for fungal growth. Mycorrhizae may provide the following benefits: Related Links:

The autotrophic host plant acts as the carbon source for the fungus, while the fungus supplies mineral nutrients to the plant. About 90% of all land plants are associated with mycorrhiza. The mycorrhizal association is not available in Cruciferae, Chenopodiaceae and Resedaceae. Features of Mycorrhiza:

The term mycorrhiza is used to describe an association formed by a group of fungi (mycelium) that, when having contact with the roots of the plants, can wrap them forming a mantle and penetrate them intercellularly through the cells of the cortex, as in the case of the ectomycorrhiza or, as in the case of the arbuscular mycorrhiza, penetrate the...
