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 …

Mycorrhizal fungi and insects are important components of most ecosystems that are likely to
interact with one another indirectly through a common host plant. In this paper, we review …
