Exploring the Genome of Glomalean Fungi

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: The Mycota ((MYCOTA,volume 9))

Abstract

The order Glomales has been created in the Zygomycota to encompass fungi forming arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) in a mutualistic symbiosis with plant roots (Morton 1993). Glomalean fungi are complex but extremely successful organisms. Since their appearance about the time of the Devonian era, they have persisted through periods of important environmental change and spread to newly evolving plant species to become abundant symbionts in terrestrial ecosystems across the globe (Smith and Read 1997). They are, nevertheless, obligate symbionts and are assumed to reproduce asexually, which raises the question of how they have dealt with mutational problems and adaptation to new hosts or habitats during evolution. Reproductive structures are large, vegetative, unicellular spores which harbour several hundreds or thousands of nuclei (Fig. 1A), making Glomales an unusual group of fungi (Giovannetti and Gianinazzi-Pearson 1994).
