Evolution of Mycorrhiza

  • Chapter
Mycorrhizal Biology

Abstract

Symbiosis means living together. This association has evolved and has been inherited over the generation as it provides selective advantage to the super-organism. The symbionts in general are nutritional symbionts show a kind of mutualistic association in which the plant provides the carbohydrate skeletons in turn the symbiont enables the plant to have access to the sparsely available nutrients and also stress resistance. The most obvious example of symbiosis in the plant kingdom is that of fungus-green plant (Frank, 1885), bacteria-green plant (Beijerinck, 1888) and actionomycetes - green plants (Callaham et al. 1978), their abundance being in order of their mention.
