(b) Mycorrhiza is a mutual association between fungus and roots of gymnosperms, like Pinus. In this relationship the fungal hyphae extends into the soil and absorb water and minerals from the soil. This absorbed minerals and water is handed over to the roots of the plants, which in turn provides sugar and N-compound to the fungal hyphae |
