Re: Mycorrhizae

There isn't much that they can't do other than sing and dance. Your info on the inorganic fertilizer isn't too far off. Mycos will "burn" if too much inorgainic fertilizer is around. In terms of who is supporting who here, it is a two way street. The mycos provide increased nutrient and water uptake to the tree and the tree provides a carbon source (from photosynthesis) to the mycos.

P.S. Matt, I didn't know if anyone would catch the "thread" thing but I couldn't help putting it in.
