Mycorrhizae

Description

Mycorrhizae are mutual symbiotic associations (with reciprocal benefits) between fungi in the soil and the non-lignified roots of plants. It is used in order to accelerate the initial stages of plant development to increase the crop production efficiency in their growth time window. In viticulture and fruit growing, this technique is limited to nursery use to accelerate the development of the root system.
