The roots of many plant species have the ability to form symbiotic relationships with the
community of soil fungi. In these relationships, mycorrhizal fungi provide mobilized nutrients …

Background Mycorrhizae, symbiotic interactions between soil fungi and tree roots, are
ubiquitous in terrestrial ecosystems. The fungi contribute phosphorous, nitrogen and …

Mycorrhizas are widespread below‐ground symbioses formed between plant roots and soil
fungi. This plant–fungal partnership impacts terrestrial ecosystems by mediating plant …

Studies of the ectomycorrhizal symbiosis have highlighted the role of transcriptional
regulation in controlling the morphological stages of symbiosis differentiation. To examine …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi participate in a widely conserved symbiosis with a majority of
land plants which provides plant hosts with increased capability for soil nutrient uptake …

Mycorrhizal symbioses are formed between plant root systems and compatible fungal
hyphae that results in a complex mixed structure. They are found in all ecosystems and with …

Mycorrhizal symbioses between plants and fungi are vital for the soil structure, nutrient
cycling, plant diversity, and ecosystem sustainability. More than 250 000 plant species are …

Carbon storage and cycling in boreal forests—the largest terrestrial carbon store—is
moderated by complex interactions between trees and soil microorganisms. However …

Mycorrhizal symbiosis is a mutualistic interaction involving roots of terrestrial plants and soil
fungi. Morphological changes associated with the development of this symbiosis are …

Ectomycorrhizal (ECM) symbiosis is a mutualistic association between soil fungi and the
lateral roots of tree species dominating forest ecosystems. This mutualistic association plays …
