Why Mycorrhizal Fungi Important For Plants
Summary: The following blog gives brief information about the mycorrhizal fungi which help for organic growth of crops. Mycorrhizal fungi are beneficial soil microorganisms establishing mutualistic symbioses with the roots of the most important food for plants. Mycorrhizal fungi account for about 10% of diagnosed fungal species, along with basically all the Glomeromycota and sizable fractions of the Ascomycota and Basidiomycota. Numerous distinct varieties of mycorrhizal associations exist, which includes arbuscular, ericoid, orchid and ectomycorrhiza. Even though arbuscular mycorrhiza developed first, ectomycorrhizal and orchid mycorrhizal fungi are the most speciose sorts, and every of these sorts arose from more than one independent evolutionary activities, observed by means of convergent evolution.
