Signalling process during the early contact of ectomycorrhizal fungi Pisolithus tinctorius with Castanea sativa roots
Ectomycorrhizas (ECM) are symbiotic associations between roots of higher plants, mainly trees (e.g. Pinacea and Fagaceae), and soil fungi (asco- and basidiomycetes). The establishment of this symbiotic association requires a sequence of highly regulated and coordinated events, initiated by an exchan...

| Summary: | Ectomycorrhizas (ECM) are symbiotic associations between roots of higher plants, mainly trees (e.g. Pinacea and Fagaceae), and soil fungi (asco- and basidiomycetes). The establishment of this symbiotic association requires a sequence of highly regulated and coordinated events, initiated by an exchange of specific signalling compounds between both partners. |
