Mycorrhizal Functioning

It is now known that over 90 percent of all plants have established integrative plant-fungal processes in their root systems, and it may well turn out to be the case that virtually all plants have mycorrhizae. In this new work, many of the best researchers in the field review the current status of research in plant-fungal communications, mycorrhizal organisms, applications and biotechnology. The focus is a hierarchical one. The volume covers both ectomycorrhizae and vesicular-arbuscular (VA) mycorrhizae, addressing concepts that are related to all the different groups.
