Vanilla is one of the most valuable spices in the world. In Madagascar and La Réunion, the world's leading producers, vanilla is of great economic and cultural importance. Like all orchids, vanilla plants associate with mycorrhizal fungi in their roots forming mutualistic associations that allow them to grow and thrive.

Summary Arbuscular (AM) and orchid (OrM) mycorrhiza are the most widespread mycorrhizal symbioses among flowering plants, formed by distinct fungal and plant species. They are both endosymbioses because the fungal hyphae can enter inside the plant cell to develop intracellular fungal structures that are surrounded by the plant membrane.

The soil microbiome is crucial for regulating biogeochemical processes and can thus strongly influence sapling development, especially under drought conditions. In this mesocosm experiment with Scots pine saplings and natural forest soil, prolonged water limitation progressively altered the composition of soil microbial communities, regardless of the ...

Abstract We isolated Tulasnella spp. from Spiranthes sinensis var. amoena, a Japanese native winter green terrestrial orchid collected in Tsukuba City, Ibaraki Pref., Japan. These isolates were classified into four morphotypes according to morphological characters, i.e., shape of monilioid cells and branch type of monilioid cell chains, while they ...
