- As noted in Section 46.7, mycorrhizal fungi help prevent carbon in the soil from escaping into the atmosphere. These fungi also benefit a host plant by providing it with a share of the phosphorus and nitrogen that their hyphae take up from soil. Most crop plants are capable of forming a relationship with mycorrhizal fungi, if any are present in the soil. Some people have suggested that inoculating soil with fungal spores could help reduce the use of industrially produced fertilizer. What are some potential advantages of using fungi, rather than chemical fertilizers, to enhance plant growth?arrow_forwardWhich factors affect soil quality? chemical composition history of the soil presence of living organisms and topography cl. all of the abovearrow_forwardWhich of these occurs through symbiotic nitrogen fixation?
