Mycorrhizas increase nutrient uptake from the soil, assist in the biocontrol of pathogenic fungi and nematodes, and have a positive effect on the establishment of plant communities This beautifully illustrated book presents a summary of all the mycorrhizal types from a morphological and anatomical perspective.

Mycorrhizas: Anatomy and Cell Biology Images CD

This companion CD for Mycorrhizas: Anatomy and Cell Biology presents a visual description of all mycorrhiza categories and includes detailed structural information obtained by light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and laser scanning confocal microscopy. This supplementary resource of images can be uploaded into presentations for teaching and seminars.
