Mycorrhizal fungi associated with plant roots increase the absorption of nutrients, particularly
phosphorus, and thus enhance the growth of crop plants and trees. Vesicular-arbuscular …

Since the earliest report by Frank (1885), in which he documented the benefit of
ectomycorrhizal fungi for their plant hosts, ecologists have been intrigued by the functional …

Ectomycorrhizal (EcM) inocula have been reported to improve quality and commercial value
of seedlings of coniferous and broadleaved tree species in nursery conditions. The …

The endophytic, mantle-inhabiting and rhizosphere-inhabiting microorganisms associated
with ectomycorrhizal roots have been studied for over 100 years, but a surprising amount of …

Presently, one agricultural area of great commercial interest involves the production of
quality seedlings. These seedlings must have a guarantee that they do not carry pathogens …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) have obligatory symbiotic relationship with more than
80% of terrestrial plant species. AMF symbiosis acclimatizes plants for their better survival …

Mutualistic ectomycorrhizal symbionts are of major importance as drivers of ecological
function and evolutionary processes in forest ecosystems. Within days after their emergence …

The Dipterocarpaceae, ecosystem dominants and source of forest products in South-east
Asia, form ectomycorrhizas (EcMs). Important fungal families involved in this symbiosis are …

In agricultural lands, long-term chemical inputs for the purpose of disease control result in
both chronic and acute negative effects, such as environment pollution, human health …

The screening of ectomycorrhizal fungi for enhanced disease suppression in forest
nurseries, the mechanism of disease protection by ectomycorrhizal fungi, manipulation of …
