What it is

Mycorrhizae are a type of beneficial fungi that form symbiotic relationships with the roots of plants. These fungi extend the root system by creating a network of fungal filaments, known as hyphae, which can absorb water and nutrients more efficiently than plant roots alone. This relationship significantly enhances the plant's ability to uptake nutrients like phosphorus, nitrogen, and essential minerals from the soil.

Why is it important

Enhanced Nutrient Uptake: Mycorrhizae increase the surface area for absorption, allowing plants to access nutrients that are otherwise unavailable or in low concentration in the soil.

Improved Water Absorption: The extensive hyphal network helps plants absorb water more efficiently, aiding in drought resistance and overall hydration.

Soil Health: Mycorrhizae improve soil structure by aggregating soil particles, which enhances aeration and drainage while reducing soil erosion.

Plant Growth and Health: With better access to nutrients and water, plants grow more vigorously, show improved resistance to diseases, and produce higher yields.

Sustainability: Using mycorrhizae can reduce the need for chemical fertilizers and pesticides, promoting more sustainable agricultural and gardening practices.

How it works

The Symbiotic Relationship

Mycorrhizae are beneficial fungi that form a mutualistic relationship with plant roots. The plant provides the fungi with carbohydrates from photosynthesis, and in return, the fungi enhance the plant's access to water and nutrients.

Formation of Mycorrhizal Networks

Mycorrhizal spores germinate and grow hyphae that penetrate plant root cells and extend into the soil. This creates a network that increases the root surface area, allowing the plant to access more resources.

Nutrient and Water Uptake

Phosphorus Uptake: Mycorrhizal fungi excel at absorbing phosphorus, making it more available to the plant.
Nitrogen and Minerals: They also help absorb nitrogen and other essential minerals like potassium and calcium.
Water Absorption: The hyphal network aids in water absorption, improving the plant's drought resistance.

Improved Soil Structure

Soil Aggregation: Hyphae bind soil particles, enhancing soil aeration and drainage.
Reduced Erosion: Stabilized soil reduces erosion, supporting a healthier root environment.

Enhanced Plant Health and Growth

Growth and Yield: Better nutrient and water access leads to faster growth and higher yields.
Disease Resistance: Mycorrhizae help plants resist soil-borne diseases by outcompeting harmful pathogens.

Sustainability and Environmental Impact

Using mycorrhizae reduces the need for chemical fertilizers, supporting sustainable and organic farming practices by promoting healthier soils and plants.
