Extractions: Home Plant Basics Definition of Mycorrhizae By Philip McIntosh eHow Contributor I want to do this! What's This? Definition of Mycorrhizae Mycorrhizae on Pine Roots (photo by Paul Davison) Mycorrhizae (sing. mycorrhiza) are symbioses between a fungus and the roots of a plant. Most plants participate in this relationship , which is beneficial to the plant and the fungus. The plant obtains water and mineral nutrients from the fungus and the fungus obtains carbon compounds, derived from photosynthesis, from the plant. Mycorrhizae are classified into one of two basic types: ectomycorrhizae and endomycorrhizae. Mycorrhizae were first described by the German botanist Albert Bernard Frank in 1883. His initial work was greeted with skepticism by scientists who found it hard to believe that fungi could live in plant roots without causing harm. Critics said the fungi were abnormal structures or parasites. Undaunted, Frank continued his research and, by 1888, had produced strong evidence for a mutualistic relationship.

The Mycorrhizal fungi excrete powerful chemicals that dissolve mineral nutrients, absorb water, retard soil pathogens, and glue soil particles together into a porous structure. In return, the Mycorrhizae fungus receives sugar and other compounds from plants to fuel Mycorrhizal activities. Both plant and fungus benefit from the "symbiotic relationship". Research has documented improved plant nutrient and water uptake, plus resistance to a wide range of soil diseases and environmental extremes. Plants establish fruit and flower more abundantly; areas thrive with less irrigation, fertilizer, and pesticides. The Mycorrhizal network is nature's original World Wide Web.

http://www.luvnpeas.org/edibility/edibleFiles/mycorrhizae.html

Extractions: Bill Robinson Mycorrhizae are symbiotic soil fungi, present in most soils, that attach themselves directly onto the roots of most plants. They help the host plants absorb more water and nutrients while the host plants provide food for the fungi. Because the surface area of the hyphae, the feeding structures of the mycorrhizae, may be several hundred times the surface area of the roots, the mycorrhizae can feed on a larger soil mass than the roots and they do so more thoroughly. Mycorrhizae have the potential to be a central nutritional source for the host plant. Mycorrhiza also seem to cause the host to increase the production of certain metabolites but those studies are incomplete. One study compared the fresh weight of a group of different roses whose roots had been inoculated with two different mycorrhizae against the weight of the same varieties grown without mycorrhizae. The inoculation was done by dusting the rose roots with spores of the mycorrhizae at the time of planting. The mycorrhizae employed were Glomus deserticola and G. intraradices. After several months the roses were dug up, washed to remove any foreign material, and then weighed roots and all. The inoculated roses showed significant increases in weight in every instance. Some of the roses did better with G. deserticola while others did better with G. intraradices. In one instance a miniature rose showed a 75% increase in fresh weight with both of the test mycorrhizae. If the conditions are right, a viable mycorrrhizae colony can help the plant become more vigorous, more salt tolerant, less fertilizer dependent and more tolerant of chronic low moisture - but the key word is, "if" and there are qualifiers. First, the mycorrhizae are relatively fragile. They thrive when the organic content of the soil is high but languish when the organic content is low. Mycorrhizae also resent having the soil disturbed. Rather than digging in organic material and disturbing the soil, it is best to simply put down a 2" layer of compost in the winter and another 2" layer in the summer. The mycorrhizae sends hyphae to this rich organic layer as a prime nutritional source.

Extractions: [Prev] [Next] [Index] http://users.caribnet.net/~lec/types.html Title: Mycorrhizae The roots of almost all higher plants are known to form mutualistic symbioses with fungi. These are termed mycorrhizae (fungus roots, from the Greek: mykes = mushroom or fungus and rhiza = root). Allen (1991) defined a mycorrhiza as " a mutualistic symbiosis between plant and fungus localised in a root or root-like structure in which energy moves primarily from plant to fungus and inorganic resources move from fungus to plant Fungi of very diverse kinds, belonging to all the major groups, take part in mycorrhizae. Based on morphology and the species involved, several different types are recognised. These are described below. The types can be distinguished by their positions along two gradients, from a lack of penetration of cortical cells (ectomycorrhizae) to penetration (vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizae) and from an enclosed (ectomycorrhizae) to open root (vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizae). Any natural ecosystem normally contains a mixture of types of mycorrhizal associations The main mycorrhizal response is one of increased efficiency of mineral uptake especially of poorly mobile ions and there is a voluminous literature dealing with the nutritional benefits that plants derive from mycorrhizal associations. Mycorrhizae are also involved in the transfer of nutrients from components of soil minerals and organic residues to solution, and in nutrient cycling in an ecosystem.

Extractions: The word "Mycorrhiza" is given to a mutualistic association between a fungus (Myco) and the roots (rhiza) of the plants. This ascociation is symbiotic because the relationship is advantageous for both organisms. The macrosymbiont (the plant) gains increased exploration of the soil (rhizo sphere) with the intrincate net of hyphae that increases the uptake of water and nutrients from the soil interphase. The microsymbiont (the fungus) uses the carbon provided by the plant for its physiological functions, growth and development. MYCORRHIZA at TAMU The Nursery Crop Physiology lab at the Department of Horticulture has been working over the past 25 years with ectomycorrhizal and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi under severe outplanting conditions (Texas lignite coal, strip mines, and highway revegetation sites). They have also characterized mycorrhizal associations in herbaceous and woody plant species and some of the mechanisms of enhanced drought, nutrient relations and temperature stress tolerance of mycorrhizal plants. Mycorrhizal plants can also be used to phytoremediate soil contaminated with petroleum and heavy metals such as chromium (Cr).

http://www.agbio-inc.com/mycorrhizae-faq.html

Extractions: Mycorrhizae can form from only one spore that germinates and infects a root, but it may take a long time for the fungus to spread to a significant portion of the root system. Therefore, it is better to initiate multiple infection sites to speed up the colonization process. The minimum needed depends on the size and age of the root system. In other words, there is no specific answer to the question. Mycorrhizal fungi colonize roots forming a biological link between the root and the soil. The fungus grows into the root and out into the soil. The plant responds by altering its physiology in a number of ways. The fungus in the soil absorbs water and nutrients from the soil and conducts them back to the root. Formation of mycorrhizae affects the composition of the microorganisms around the roots, and some of those microbes can influence the plant growth and health.

Extractions: The term "mycorrhizae" comes from the Greek "myco" or fungus and "rhiza" or root and literally means "fungusroot." Mycorrhizae have been described as perhaps the ultimate in reciprocal parasitism (symboisis) wherein the fungus supplies the higher plant partner with mineral nutrients and plant growth hormones and protects the roots against pathogens, and the higher plant supplies the fungus with energy substrates. Almost all higher plants are dependent upon one of the mycorrhizal associations outlined in Table XIX, as only crucifers, chenopods, sedges, and aquatic plants are thought to be non-mycorrhizal.

http://www.avtreefarm.com/bacterium/mycorrhizae.htm

Extractions: All species of trees growing under normal soil conditions in the forest are dual organisms-part plant and part root-inhabiting fungi. These highly specialized, root-inhabiting fungi are not pathogenic and, thus, do not cause root disease. They are beneficial to their tree hosts. They infect, symbiotically, the cortical tissues of young feeder roots of trees and form mycorrhizae. The word mycorrhizae means "fungus-roots." Mycorrhizae are the normal feeder roots of all forest trees, as they are for the vast majority of other plant species, including agronomic, horticultural, ornamental, and turf crops. The three classes of mycorrhizae are identified by the arrangement of the hyphae of the fungi within root cortical tissues. Ectomycorrhizae.-This class occurs normally on roots of pine, spruce, fir, beech, birch, eucalyptus, alder, oaks, hickories, and certain other trees. Ectomycorrhizae usually can be distinguished from nonmycorrhizal roots because of their swollen appearance and in the case of Pinus, a forking habit. Not all forked feeder roots of pine are ectomycorrhizal, however, since feeder roots of many species can be stimulated to fork by many factors other than ectomycorrhizal fungus infection. The fungi which form ectomycorrhizae are among those that mainly produce mushrooms and puffballs periodically throughout the year.
