Question

Arbuscular Mycorrhizae can be successfully grown and will develop without a host plant present.

Answers:	True
	False

Answer 1

False.

Mycorrhiza is term inherently used for symbiotic association between plant and fungi in mutually beneficial association. The fungal partner in the arbuscular mycorrhiza forms interradial structures inside the plant. Exchange of materials between plant and fungi takes place at the interface of the symbiotic association which takes the forms of arbuscules or coils. The term "mycorrhiza" can only be used for a fungus is present in a symbiotic association with a plant host. Without host, mycorrhiza cannot be grown or developed. It will simply be known as separate plant or fungus.
