Synopsis

Interactions amongst plants and different endophytes are prevalent in soils deficient in both nitrogen and phosphorus. Several systems are now recognised, combining infections by both fungi and prokaryotes. Symbiotic associations are ancient and reflect the requirements for the maximum uptake of nitrogen and phosphorus in plant nutrition.
