In forest ecosystems, virtually all plant roots are mycorrhizal and enhanced nutrition and
growth of forest trees are the result. However, less is known about the different effects of …

The fungal symbionts forming ectomycorrhizas, as well as their associated bacteria, benefit
forest trees in a number of ways although the most important is enhancing soil nutrient …

Plant disease occurs simultaneously with insect attack. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF)
modify plant biotic stress response. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and pathogens may modify …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi influence the root system architecture of their hosts;
however, the underlying mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. Ectomycorrhizal fungi …
