The roots of most plants are colonized by symbiotic fungi to form mycorrhiza, which play a critical role in the capture of nutrients from the soil and therefore in plant nutrition. This title covers various aspects of mycorrhiza. It presents fresh taxonomy. It discusses the impact of proteomics and genomics on research in this area.
The roots of most plants are colonized by symbiotic fungi to form mycorrhiza, which play a critical role in the capture of nutrients from the soil and therefore in plant nutrition. Mycorrhizal Symbiosis is recognized as the definitive work in this area. Since the last edition was published there have been major advances in the field, particularly in the area of molecular biology, and the new edition has been fully revised and updated to incorporate these exciting new developments.

Mineral Nutrition, Toxic Element Accumulation and Water Relations of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Plants

Section 2 Ectomycorrhizas 6. Structure and Development of Ectomycorrhizal Roots 7. Ectendo- and Arbutoid Mycorrhizas 8. Growth and Carbon Allocation of Ectomycorrhizal Symbionts 9. Nitrogen Mobilization and Nutrition in Ectomycorrhizal Plants 10. Phosphorus and Base Cation Nutrition, Heavy Metal Accumulation and Water Relations of Ectomycorrhizal Plants

Section 3 Ericoid, Orchid and Mycoheterotrophic Mycorrhizas 11. Ericoid Mycorrhizas 12. Mycorrhizas of Green Orchids 13. Mycorrhizas in Achlorophyllous Plants (Mycoheterotrophs) 14. Fungal Symbioses in Lower Land Plants
