This review focuses on mycorrhizas, which are associations between fungi and the roots of
90% of terrestrial plants. These are the most common symbioses in the world; they involve …

The roots of most terrestrial plants are colonized by mycorrhizal fungi. They play a key role in
terrestrial environments influencing soil structure and ecosystem functionality. Around them …

Mycorrhizal fungi belong to several taxa and develop mutualistic symbiotic associations with
over 90% of all plant species, from liverworts to angiosperms. While descriptive approaches …

Bacteria and mycorrhizal fungi in the rhizosphere interact with each other at different levels
of cellular integration, ranging from apparently simple association, through surface …

Omics tools constitute a powerful means of describing the complexity of plants and soil-
borne microorganisms. Next generation sequencing technologies, coupled with emerging …

When plants colonized the land 450 million years ago, they were already associated to soil
fungi, which assisted them in facilitating the uptake of mineral nutrients. This symbiotic …

Plant roots associate with diverse microbes (including bacteria, fungi, archaea, protists, and
viruses) collectively called the root-associated microbiome. Among them, mycorrhizal fungi …

Plants do not exist as single entities but should rather be considered to form a complex
community with microbes and other organisms where plant tissues form diverse niches for …

This review focuses on interactions among plants, mycorrhizal fungi, and bacteria, testing
the hypothesis whether mycorrhizas can be defined as tripartite associations. After …

Ectomycorrhiza represents a symbiotic structure made between tree roots and filamentous
hyphae. This new organ results from a favourable interaction between plant and microbes …
