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

BackgroundOrchid species rely on mycorrhizal symbioses with fungi to complete their life cycle. Although there is mounting evidence that orchids can associate with several fungi from different clades or families, less is known about the actual geographic

Fungal diversity and specificity in Cephalanthera damasonium and C. longifolia (Orchidaceae) mycorrhizas [PDF]
Orchids depend on mycorrhizal fungi for their nutrition, at least in the early stages of their growth and development and in many cases throughout the life.

Nitrogen transport in the orchid mycorrhizal symbiosis - further evidence for a mutualistic association. [PDF]
Mycorrhizas are symbioses integral to the health of plant-based ecosystems (Smith & Read, 2008). In a typical mycorrhizal association, fungi in, or on, plant roots pass soil-acquired inorganic nutrients and water to the plant host.
