Homokaryotic vs heterokaryotic mycelium in arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi: different techniques, different results?
7 May 2015
Abstract excerpt
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) belong to a widely distributed, ecologically and economically important symbiotic fungal phylum, the Glomeromycota. These heterotrophic fungi take plant-assimilated carbon through an obligate symbiosis with most vascular plants, in exchange of enhancing their host's uptake of mineral nutrients (phosphate and nitrates) from the soil (Bonfante & Genre, 2010) and protecting them...
