3. Soil Fungi
Fungal communities existing in soil in
arrangement of web called mycelium. Fungi
increases the:
Soil organic matter
Soil aggregation
Fungal communities present in soil also
decreases the soil erosion.

5. Soil Aggregation
Fungi develop in stretched thin strands known as
hyphae. Size of fungal hyphae in soil has been
generate to be connected to the quantity of
aggregates in the soil. Fungi support to produce
aggregates in soil then their hyphae entangle soil
elements and they create cross relations between
soil particles. fungi and mycorrhizal fungi that
settle new organic matter and are thought to be
most significant for support aggregation.

9. Mycorrhiza
There are two type of mycorrhiza
Endomycorrhiza: An Endomycorrhiza is kind
of mycorrhiza in which fungus infiltrates
cortical cells of roots of vascular plant.
Ectomycorrhiza: An ectomycorrhiza presents
outside root, fungal mycelium produce an
wide system within leaf litter and soil.

14. Communication Among Plants
Through Fungi
The link between plant’s roots is intracellular
and fungi. There is chemical message
working beside with nutrient exchange. The
association is symbiotic and has progressed
over thousands of ages. It has been exposed
that it drives additional than a fungus and a
plant; that fungi also attach adjacent plants to
each other. Chemical message drives
between multiple plants through fungi.

15. Communication Among Plants
Through Fungi
In forests, it has furthermore been exposed
that once trees expire, they network their
residual nutrients out into fungi net to nourish
other trees. Or else a vile tree may obtain
nutrients from in good health trees. Word
‘mother tree’ has been practical to the main
trees in forest for example these
grandmothers really control over the health
and well being of all nearby trees.
