Tidying up international nucleotide sequence databases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Sequence analysis of the ribosomal RNA operon, particularly the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region, provides a powerful tool for identification of mycorrhizal fungi.

The long-term survival and climatic distribution of mixotrophic and mycoheterotrophic orchids

open access: yesActa Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2023
Orchid germination depends on their fungal partner; however, there are no broadscale analyses evaluating the actual overlap between orchids and their mycorrhizal symbionts.

Quantitative evaluation of protocorm growth and fungal colonization in Bletilla striata (Orchidaceae) reveals less-productive symbiosis with a non-native symbiotic fungus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Quantitative evaluation of symbiotic cells in Pecteilis radiata protocorm. (a) Symbiotic cells with hyphal coils in P. radiata protocorm. Scale bars, 50 Οm. (b) Ratio of the number of symbiotic cells at each stage in a symbiotic protocorm.

Non-specificity of Orchid Mycorrhizal Fungi

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 1937
While isolating the mycorrhizal fungi from various species of native Wisconsin orchids, several features were noted which are at variance with the usually reported results of European investigators concerning the specificity of mycorrhizal infections.

The Role of Non-Mycorrhizal Fungi in Germination of the Mycoheterotrophic Orchid Pogoniopsis schenckii Cogn.

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Endophytic fungi are those that inhabit within organs and tissues without causing damage, while mycorrhizal fungi develop hyphal complexes called pelotons within cortical cells of orchid roots. Although abundant and frequent in all plant organs, the role

Root-Associated Endophytic and Mycorrhizal Fungi from the Epiphytic Orchid Maxillaria acuminata in a Tropical Montane Forest in Southern Ecuador

open access: yesDiversity, 2022
In natural environments, it has been shown that orchids interact with multiple microorganisms including various species of fungi that colonize their tissues.

Epiparasitic plants specialized on arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Over 400 non-photosynthetic species from 10 families of vascular plants obtain their carbon from fungi and are thus defined as myco-heterotrophs. Many of these plants are epiparasitic on green plants from which they obtain carbon by 'cheating' shared ...

Molecular evidence supports simultaneous association of the achlorophyllous orchid Chamaegastrodia inverta with ectomycorrhizal Ceratobasidiaceae and Russulaceae

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2020
Background Achlorophyllous orchids are mycoheterotrophic plants, which lack photosynthetic ability and associate with fungi to acquire carbon from different environmental sources. In tropical latitudes, achlorophyllous forest orchids show a preference to

Interactions among mycorrhizal fungi enhance the early development of a Mediterranean orchid

open access: yesMycorrhiza, 2023
AbstractOrchids depend on mycorrhizal fungi to germinate from seed. While multiple orchid mycorrhizal (OrM) taxa are often found associated with adult orchids, the relative contribution of particular OrM taxa to germination and early orchid development is poorly understood.
