For more than 450 million years, arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) have formed intimate, mutualistic symbioses with the vast majority of land plants and are major drivers in almost all terrestrial ecosystems. The obligate ...

Mutualistic associations between fungi and the roots of plants are called (a) lichens (b) mycorrhizae (c) pathogenic associations (d) parasitic haustoria (e) mycotoxic symbioses All fungi are multicellular. Is the statement true or false?
Within the plant microbiota, mutualistic fungal and bacterial symbionts are striking examples of microorganisms playing crucial roles in nutrient acquisition. They have coevolved with their hosts since initial plant adaptation to land. Despite the evolutionary distances that separate mycorrhizal and nitrogen...
Mycorrhiza is a mutualistic symbiosis between a plant’s roots and a specific fungus, which plays an integral role in the root–soil interface, influencing nutrient cycling and shaping terrestrial ecosystems. Mycorrhizal fungi are widely distributed in different types of terrestrial ecosystems and include...
[1,3]. Through mutualistic symbioses with ECM fungi, tree species have been able to acquire metabolic capabilities that have allowed the utilization of otherwise unavailable ecological niches. The mechanisms involved in the development of symbiosis are likely to be similar if not identical in the ...
and mutualistic symbionts (e.g. lichens). Prominent and important genera of filamentous ascomycetes include Aspergillus, Penicillium, Fusarium, and Claviceps. Many ascomycete species have only been observed undergoing asexual reproduction (called anamorphic species), but analysis of molecular data has often...

More than 90% of extant land plants have a symbiotic (mutualistic) relationship with mycorrhizal fungi in their roots. There are two basic types of extant mycorrhizae: ecto- and endomycorrhizae. Endomycorrhizae are formed by members of the glomeromycetes and are the most common form today. ...
