Mycorrhizzae Symbiosis
• Mycorrhizae a symbiotic relationship with a plant’s roots and a fungi that is primarily Mutualistic (benefits both) but can be Pathogenic (causing harm to plant).

The Benefits
• Mycorrhizae is most useful in nutrient poor soil. Unlike normal roots, Mycorrhizae are thinner and are generally more wide-spread, which allows them to search for nutrients more effectively.

What’s in it for Mycorrhizae
• While Mycorrhizae has a far more effective method of gathering nutrients for the plant, the fungi also has access to the Glucose and Sucrose provided by the plant.
