This second updated and fully revised edition of the Mycorrhiza puts a stronger emphasis on genetics and molecular biology. It contains new chapters written by leading experts in the field of mycorrhizae, that are symbioses formed between fungi and the roots of higher plants. As more than 90% of all known species of plants have the potential to form mycorrhizal associations, the productivity, species composition and diversity of natural ecosystems are frequently dependent upon the presence and activity of mycorrhizae. Hence, the commercial application of mycorrhizae is expected to increase the production of food while maintaining ecologically and economically sustainable production systems.
