Mycorrhizae involve a symbiotic relationship primarily between fungi and plant roots. The fungi, such as species from the genera Glomus, form a network of hyphae that extend into the soil, helping the plant absorb water and nutrients, particularly phosphorus. In return, the plant provides the fungi with carbohydrates produced through photosynthesis. This mutualistic association enhances plant growth and ecosystem health.
