Abstract: The soil community is a complex system characterized by predator-prey interactions. Fungi have developed effective strategies to defend themselves against predators. ABSTRACT The fungus Rhizopus microsporus harbors a bacterial endosymbiont (Mycetohabitans rhizoxinica) for the production… read more here.
