[edit] L. Bicolor
L.Bicolor actually infects said springtails - no evidence of a toxin. http://www.mykoweb.com/articles/MycorrhizalSymbiosis.html 70.61.22.110 14:13, 18 June 2007 (UTC)Ubiquitousnewt
[edit] List of mycorrhizal plants?
A list of plants in such symbiotic relationships would be interesting.

- Most (90%?) of plants are mycorrhizal. It'd be far easier to list non-mycorrhizal species. MidgleyDJ 19:09, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

- Good guess: 80% of species and 92% of families. A list would seem somewhat pointless as the trait was lost many times convergently, with no underlying pattern that has yet been identified.

[edit] Jargon
I was only able to understand a quarter of it all! This article needs to be downgraded slightly in vocabulary so people can understand it better.
---
I disagree. Jargon if suitably linked is fine, I navigated around and learnt quite a lot. I strongly discourage dumbing down articles, and instead encourage a strong linking system to explain terms.
However, I believe this and the linked articles should be referenced better, especially where statistics are concerned. Is this something I can help with? I am new to Wikipedia.

We found the entry wonderfully informative! Thank you so much Wikipedia and mycorrhizae experts!!! We just innoculated all our bare root stone fruit trees with it before planting yesterday (Februray 2, 2007, Feast of Brigid) & the Jewish holy day of trees Tu B'Shvat!)

[edit] Definition of mycorrhiza
According to the Dictionary of the Fungi, 9th ed. by Kirk, et al, a mycorrhiza is a "symbiotic, non-pathogenic or feebly or weakly pathogenic association of a fungus and the roots of a plant." (Emphasis added) Mycota 21:49, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Additional sources
This article is now looking reasonably respectable in terms of inline citations. Could the boilerplate template be removed and individual statements requiring verification be tagged with {{cn}}? This would make it much easier to address the issue. Thanks! Verisimilus T 20:14, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
