Mycorrhizal network: a bidirectional pathway between green-leaved terrestrial orchids and pine trees

The divergent transfer patterns among orchid species demonstrate that mycorrhizal networks function as dynamic, species-specific pathways for resource transfer. This specificity may significantly influence orchid recruitment and nutrient dynamics in forest understories, suggesting that the role of common mycorrhizal networks is more complex than previously recognized.

Abstract

The divergent transfer patterns among orchid species demonstrate that mycorrhizal networks function as dynamic, species-specific pathways for resource transfer. This specificity may significantly influence orchid recruitment and nutrient dynamics in forest understories, suggesting that the role of common mycorrhizal networks is more complex than previously recognized.
