Direct water transportFungi may supply 10% of plant water needHyphal threads forage more soil surface
Better host nutritionHigher phosphorus and nitrogen in leaves Current research: does P improve drought
resistance?Plant - osmotic adjustments
Helps maintain leaf turgidity and photosynthesis rateCurrent research: changes in soil – water relations

Plants that are colonized by mycorrhizal fungi
have a higher tolerance to enviromental stresses
caused by drought, replant,
cold, low fertility, saline soil,
or pressure from root rot pathogens.

Possible applicationsThe plant is a known mycorrhizal host. The soil is poor quality, small volume, or not irrigated.
Potential benefitsIncreased tolerance to transplant, drought, stress, and root rot.Improved availability of nutrients.
To encourage root colonisationInoculate prior to transplanting.Maintain adequate water and fertiliser, mulch if possible.
