To germinate in nature, orchid seeds strictly rely on seed germination-promoting orchid
mycorrhizal fungi (sgOMFs) for provision of carbon nutrients. The underlying delivery …

Serapias vomeracea is an economically important orchid species which is over-collected
from nature, because of its glucomannan-rich tubers. Thus, optimization of in vitro culture …

Orchids form endomycorrhizal associations with fungi mainly belonging to basidiomycetes.
The molecular events taking place in orchid mycorrhiza are poorly understood, although the …

The diversity of orchid mycorrhizal fungi (OMF) and other beneficial root-associated fungi in
temperate forests has scarcely been examined. This study aimed to analyze the diversity of …

The mycorrhizal symbiosis between fungi and plants is among the oldest, ubiquitous and
most important interactions in terrestrial life on Earth. Carbon (C) transfer across a common …

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of an ectomycorrhizal fungus (Tuber
indicum) on the diversity of microbial communities associated with an indigenous tree, Pinus …

The family Orchidaceae is of the most diverse taxon in the plant kingdom, and most of its
members are highly valuable herbal medicines. Orchids have a unique mycorrhizal …

As one of the largest families of flowering plants, Orchidaceae is well-known for its high
diversity and complex life cycles. Interestingly, such exquisite plants originate from minute …

Mycorrhizal interactions of orchids are influenced by several environmental conditions.
Hence, knowledge of mycorrhizal fungi associated with orchids inhabiting different …

The roots of most land plants form mycorrhizal associations with soil fungi, in which plants
trade carbon for increased nutrient acquisition (eg, N and P) under nutrient deficiency …
