Plants collaborate with many micro-organisms in the rhizosphere to form mutualistic associations. One of the best examples is the mycorrhizal symbio sis between plants and fungi. Here, fungi support plants with mineral nutri ents and other services and the fungi, in turn, receive photosynthates from the autotrophic plants. Mycorrhizal associations are common in almost all eco systems and 80 % of all land plants associate with these mutualistic soil fungi. There is an increasing awareness among biologists, ecologists and mycolo gists that mycorrhizal associations need to be considered in order to under stand the ecology and evolution of plants, plant ...
