Summary

There are several types of mycorrhizal symbiosis (ectomycorrhiza, endomycorrhiza, ectendomycorrhiza), and the interfaces between the host-plant and the fungal symbiont have different organizations. The interfaces between the partners are always limited on the one side by the fungal plasmalemma and on the other side by the plasmalemma of the host plant or the perisymbiont membrane derived from it The cytoplasms of the partners are therefore separated by a mixed apoplast consisting of a fungal wall and a host wall or an apposition layer.
