SHORT COMMUNICATION THE USES OF Rhizoctonia MYCORRHIZAE AS A DRY RESISTANCE INDUCTION OF Dendrobium aggregatum SEEDLINGS [PDF]
Orchids are cultivated by tissue culture because their seeds do not have food reserves (endosperm) for their growth. All nutrient requirements are obtained from tissue culture media.

Cognitive Symbionts. Expanding the Scope of Cognitive Science With Fungi
Abstract It has been argued that fungi have cognitive capacities, and even conscious experiences. While these arguments risk ushering in unproductive disputes about how words like “mind,” “cognitive,” “sentient,” and “conscious” should be used, paying close attention to key properties of fungal life can also be uncontroversially productive for ...

The Effects of Mycorrhizae on Rapid-Grow Radish, Brassica rapa [PDF]
Mycorrhizae are fungi that have a symbiotic association with vascular plants. They increase nutrient absorption by plants, causing increased growth and reproduction.

The role and use of Epichloë fungal endophytes in grazed temperate grass pastures and turf grasses are now well understood with regard to balancing pasture persistence while minimising animal health and welfare concerns. However, this understanding has only emerged since the early 1980s. Prior to this, although links between Epichloë endophytes, animal

Abstract Background Sheep wool may reduce drought stress in grasslands when used as a soil amendment. Two experiments were conducted to explore if: (i) water absorbed by wool would be biologically ‘active’ and therefore available to plants, using a novel method of measuring water activity (a w); and, (ii) adding wool to compost would delay water stress

Arbuscular mycorrhizae: Effect of rhizosphere and relation with carbon nutrition
More than 90 % of terrestrial plants form symbiotic association with mycorrhizae which develop and promote cooperation belowground in rhizosphere. Mycorrhizal fungi produces spores in the soil and vegetative propagules in root fragments which respond to ...

In the southern Andes, Nothofagus pumilio shows elevational decreases in the concentrations of carbon reserves which are the food of bark‐associated yeasts, suggesting that competition for carbohydrates between tree growth and bark‐associated yeasts may cause carbon shortages.
