They are an important component of soil life and soil chemistry Mycorrhizae form a mutualistic relationship with the roots of most plant species (and while only a small proportion of all species has been examined, 95% of these plant families are predominantly mycorrhizal). This mutualistic association provides the fungus with relatively constant and direct access to carbohydrates , such as glucose and sucrose supplied by the plant.

Mycorrhizae appear in the earliest fossil record of terrestrial plant roots. Roughly 80% of the nearly 10,000 plant species that have been examined are mycorrhizal. Present-day plants that normally lack mycorrhizae are generally evolutionarily advanced. It has been inferred that primitive plants evolved with a symbiosis between fungi and rhizoids or roots as a means to extract nutrients and water from soil. The degree of dependence varies between species or groups of plants. In absolute dependence, characteristic of perennial, terrestrial plants, the host requires mycorrhizae to survive. Some plants are facultative ; they may form mycorrhizae but do not always require them. This group includes many of the world's more troublesome weeds. A minority of plant species characteristically lack mycorrhizae, so far as is known, including many aquatics, epiphytes, and annual

Extractions: Symbiosis: Mycorrhizae and Lichens Introduction In its most common usage, symbiosis is used to describe the intimate association between two distantly, related species that are mutually benefiting from this association. These associations are obligatory ones in which neither organisms can survive in nature if the two organisms are separated. However, in the strict sense of this term, as it was proposed by de Barry in 1879, symbiotic relationships include a wide range of associations: Fig. 1: The remora is a one of several species of marine fishes that have sucking disks with which they attach themselves to sharks, whales, sea turtles, or the hulls of ships. Commensalism : An association in which one species, usually the smaller, benefits from the association while the other species seems to be unaffected. Such relationship are usually not obligate and neither species will die if the association does not form. A common example is the relationship between cattle egrets and grazing cattle. The cattle egrets are birds that feed where cattle or herbivores may be grazing. The grazing cattle flushes out insects from the vegetation, which benefits the birds, but this relationship does not seem to benifit the cattle nor does it do any harm. Cattle egrets are widespread and have been introduced to Hawai�i.

Extractions: So what are mycorrhizae? Mycorrhizae are generally spoken of in the plural (rather than the singular mycorrhiza) since they comprise vast colonies are very small micro-organisms found naturally in the top profile of undisturbed soils. Visually they resemble the fine white root like growths that you see when you pull up a mushroom. That’s not surprising because what looks like mushroom roots are mycorrhizae that are fine fungal filaments. There are literally tens of thousand of different types or species and some enter the roots of host plants to aid the collection of nutrients and even assist their host to turn atmospheric nitrogen into organic nitrogen that a plant can use to aid its growth. This type is called endomycorrhizae. Another group of these tiny organisms termed the exomycorrhizae stay on the outside of the plant such as the mushroom and pine tree roots and turn soil nutrients into forms of nutrient that are more readily available to the host plant. Both types are soil born organisms that do not retard or destroy the host plant but on poor soils greatly improve the plant’s ability to survive on poor soils. When a cereal farmer plants a crop of wheat for instance they frequently inject soluble nitrogen as urea (that is 42% nitrogen in the form of a salt), but on very alkaline soils of say pH 9, such as those soils in the Murray Mallee of SA and Victoria the soil alkalinity locks up much of the nitrogen. This in effect means the farmer(s) paid for nutrients that their plants cannot access. They are sitting on reserves of soil nutrients and not just nitrogen that can be released with the aid of the tiny catalytic soil organisms, the noble mycorrhizae.

http://cals.arizona.edu/yavapai/anr/hort/byg/archive/mycorrhizae.html

Extractions: Imagine a fungus that wraps around the roots of practically every plant in the landscape and uses the plant's energy to sustain it's own cellular metabolic needs. This fungus is everywhere. In fact, they are probably lurking under the soil in your back yard right now. No, this is not some scary story designed to raise the hair on the back of your neck during the appropriate season, it's real...it's mycorrhizae. Mycorrhizae (pronounced mi-cor-ri-zay with long "i"s, short "o", and long "a") have a mutualistic relationship with the green plants that they colonize. In other words, both the fungus and the plant benefit from the association. In general, mycorrhizae assist the plant by expediting water and mineral nutrient acquisition. Tiny fungal strands called mycelia can grow through soil much faster and more easily than plant roots and can therefore exploit a much larger soil volume in search of these resources. In return, the plant provides carbohydrates (sugars) to the mycorrhizal fungus. Both endo and ectomycorrhizae are difficult and costly to grow in cultures outside of plant roots, but it can be done. Soil inoculants are available for both types. Most crop plants form associations with endomycorrhizae. And the inoculum can be applied to the soil prior to planting. There are certainly biological benefits to inoculating, but the jury is still out on the economic returns of doing so. One of the biological benefits is protection from root rot fungi. In theory, the mycorrhizae fill a niche that could otherwise be occupied by a disease causing pathogen. On the other hand, if crops are doing well and require low inputs of fertilizers, you may well already have a natural population of mycorrhizae. This is an excellent reason NOT to fumigate soils just because we can. There are also many beneficial soil organisms: nitrogen fixing bacteria, predatory nematodes, benign decomposing fungi, etc.

Extractions: Mycorrhiza inoculation IN RECENT YEARS we've read and heard a lot about the benefits of mycorrhiza in association with pines - how that tacky-looking white fluff can actually benefit the tree. But this is only part of the story and there is a lot more to this miracle of nature. What are Mycorrhizae? Before we go further, lets just examine exactly what we mean by mycorrhiza. The term mycorrhiza (plural mycorrhizae) is rather like the term "marriage". It describes an association, a relationship. If both parties to the relationship are compatible, and conditions suitable, they will both benefit. Otherwise the relationship is of no benefit to either and it ceases. One party to this relationship is your tree, the other is a microscopic beneficial fungus. The fungus forms a sheath-like structure at the root tips through which it passes to the tree various nutrients it has gathered from the soil in exchange for food the tree has produced through photosynthesis (remember, fungi are not able to produce their own food in this way).

http://www.backyardnature.net/f/mycorhza.htm

Extractions: MYCORRHIZA T he word "mycorrhiza" is built from classical Greek roots. Myco means "fungus" and rhiza means "root," so the word mycorrhiza literally means "fungus-root." When the hyphae of certain fungi form specialized sheaths around the roots of certain plants, that fungal root-coating is the mycorrhiza. Having mycorrhiza on its roots improves a plant's ability to deal with droughts, to acquire mineral nutrients, to store carbohydrates, and more. These benefits are further discussed below. In the image at the right, the thicker pine-tree root is covered with mycorrhiza while the slender root at the right is not. In the drawing below you see a cross section of a root with mycorrhiza. The fungal sheath , which constitutes the main part of mycorrhiza, is a mass of hyphae encasing the root. Notice that some hyphae penetrate between the root's outer cells, but they do not invade the cells themselves. Also note the hypha growing away from the root, thus giving the mycorrhiza more surface area for absorbing water and nutrients. Mycorrhiza forming an exterior sheath on roots are called ecto mycorrhizae . Some trees with ectomycorrhizae are species of pine, oak, beech, spruce, maple, juniper, willow and elm.

Arbuscular Mycorrhiza - Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia
An arbuscular mycorrhiza (plural mycorrhizae or mycorrhizas) is a type of mycorrhiza in which the fungus penetrates the cortical cells of the roots of a vascular plant.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arbuscular_mycorrhizae

Extractions: From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Arbuscular mycorrhizae Jump to: navigation search An arbuscular mycorrhiza (plural mycorrhizae or mycorrhizas ) is a type of mycorrhiza in which the fungus penetrates the cortical cells of the roots of a vascular plant Arbuscular mycorrhizae (AMs) are characterized by the formation of unique structures such as arbuscules and vesicles by fungi of the phylum Glomeromycota (AM fungi). AM fungi (AMF) help plants to capture nutrients such as phosphorus and micronutrients from the soil. It is believed that the development of the arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis played a crucial role in the initial colonisation of land by plants and in the evolution of the vascular plants. It has been said that it is quicker to list the plants that do not form mycorrhizae than those that do. This symbiosis is a highly evolved mutualistic relationship found between fungi and plants, the most prevalent plant symbiosis known, and AM is found in 80% of vascular plant families of today.
