This volume explores the various functions and potential
applications of mycorrhizas, including topics such as the dynamics
of root colonization, soil carbon sequestration and the function of
mycorrhizas in extreme environments. Some contributions focus on
the use of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in various crop production
processes, including soil management practices, their use as
biofertilizers and in relation to medicinal plants. Other chapters
elucidate the role of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in the
alleviation of plant water stress and of heavy metal toxicity, in
the remediation of saline soils, in mining-site rehabilitation and
in the reforestation of degraded tropical forests. In addition to
their impact in ecosystems, the economic benefits of applying
arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi are discussed. A final chapter
describes recent advances in the cultivation of edible mycorrhizal
mushrooms.
