Mycorrhiza and coralloids are found in which plant ? What does this term means
Answers
Mycorrhiza is a symbiotic association between a fungus and the roots of a vascular plant. Mycorrhiza is found in some genus of gymnosperms; like Pinus.
Coralloid Roots: These roots show a symbiotic association but in this case, the association is with nitrogen-fixing cyanobacteria. Many nodules are formed in the roots giving them coralloid appearance.
Examples are Cycas and plants of Leguminosae.
