(c) A mycorrhiza is a symbiotic association of a fungus with a roots system. The fungus provides minerals and water to the roots, in turn the roots provide sugar and N-containing compounds to the mycorrhizae. Some plants have the obligate association with mycorrhizae. For example, seeds cannot germinate and establish without the presence of mycorrhizae. |
