Recent years have brought an upsurge of interest in the study of
arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi, partly due to the realization
that the effective utilization of these symbiotic soil fungi is
likely to be essential in sustainable agriculture. Impressive
progress has been made during the last decade in the study of this
symbiosis largely as a result of increasing exploitation of
molecular tools. Although early emphasis was placed on the use of
molecular tools to study physiological processes triggered by the
symbiosis, such as expression of symbiosis-specific polypeptides
and modulation of host defences, other applications await. It was
obvious to us that gathering leaders in the field to summarize
these topics and point out research needs was necessary if we were
to understand the physiology and function of AM fungi at a
molecular level. In addition, we have taken the opportunity to
present these reviews in a logical sequence of topics ranging from
the initiation of the life cycle of the fungus to its functions in
plant growth and in the below ground ecosystem. It was a challenge
to limit this flood of information to the confines of one text.
This is a very exciting time for mycorrhiza biologists and it is
our hope that some of this excitement is conveyed to our readers.
