How do mycorrhizae function as biofertilisers? Explain with example.
Biologists have discovered that many mycorrhizal fungi are sensitive to a low pH. What human-caused environmental problem may prove catastrophic for these fungi? How may this problem affect their plant partners? What measures could we take to decrease the problem?
Mycorrhizas represent associations between plant roots andmicroorganisms thata) are antagonistic.b) help plants take up phosphorus and other nutrients from soil.c) involve algae in the association with plant roots.d) form nodules on the plant’s leaves.e) lead to the production of antibiotics.
