Endomycorrhizae in the tropics

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Developments in Plant and Soil Sciences ((DPSS,volume 5))

Abstract

The term ‘endomycorrhiza’ is used to describe mutualistic symbiotic associations between certain fungi and plant roots, in which the fungal partner grows mainly inside the root cortex and penetrates the cells of the host root.
