This method has often been used in the investigation of PolyPs in mycorrhiza fungi (Ashford et al., 1975 Callow et al., 1978 Orlovich and Ashford, 1993 Bucking et al., 1998 Ashford et al., 1999). For example, an energy dispersive X-ray spectrum from a...

Chapters 7 and 9 discuss specific exchange of molecular signals (the so-called molecular cross talk ) between beneficial microorganisms, such as rhizo-bia and mycorrhizas, and their host plants. Molecular cross talk seems to be a prerequisite mechanism for most of the plant infection by soil microorganisms (14). Only for a few microbial infections, however, the sequence and type of molecular signals involved have been characterized. Thus, there is the need for further studies to elucidate the unknown molecular cross talk between the most common rhizobacteria and fungi and the plant roots it is also needed to better understand how molecular cross talk responds to the changing environmental conditions. The potential applications of these studies are important because the...

In nature, most plant roots are invaded by fungi and transformed into mycorrhizae or "fungus roots" (25). The host plant and fungus form a symbiotic relationship whereby nutrients absorbed from the soil by the fungus are released into the host cell and the mycorrhizal fungus obtains nutrients from the host. Mycorrhiza formation is complex and depends on the dynamic interaction of the host plant, fungus and soil. Once formed, mycorrhizae have a profound influence on growth and development of the host plant (26-28).

A mycorrhiza (literally, fungus-root) is a symbiotic association between a fungus and a plant. Mycorrhizae occur most frequently on plant roots, but may be found on any tissue involved in uptake of elements from soil. Mycorrhizae, formed by numerous fungi in the orders Phycomycetes, Basidiomycetes, and Ascomycetes, can be divided into two broad groups those that penetrate host cells (endomycorrhizae) and those that do not (ectomycorrhizae). A few fungal species defy this neat classification, penetrating the cells of one host but not those of another.
