DOI: 10.1104/pp.19.00729
Abstract: Fungi and plants have engaged in intimate symbioses that are globally widespread and have driven terrestrial biogeochemical processes since plant terrestrialization >500 million years ago. Recently, hitherto unknown nutritional mutualisms involving ancient lineages of fungi… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s12864-025-12149-w
Abstract: Background Recent evidence shows that arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis is established by two distinct fungal groups, with the distinctive ‘fine root endophyte’ morphotype formed by fungi from the sub-phylum Mucoromycotina rather than the sub-phylum Glomeromycotina.… read more here.
