Abstract
Biologically, plants are very dynamic systems and exposed to huge number and diverse species of fungi in/on soil, leaves, stems and inside the plant itself. The plant fungi symbiotic relationships (mutualism, commensalism, and parasitism) play a vital role in agriculture sustainability and the restoration of the ecosystem, while fungal pathogens have detrimental effects on plant physiology, mutualistic fungi augment plant defense responses to pathogens and/or improve plant nutrient uptake and plant communities may not survive many environmental stresses without these symbiotic associations. In this chapter, we will discuss the recent advances in these interactions with special reference to signaling and quorum sensing.
