Vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhiza and drought tolerance in the host plant
Describe the benefits of vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhiza and the benefits it has to the host plant in terms of drought tolerance.
This solution outlines the benefits of vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhiza (VAM) in terms of enabling plants to tolerate drought. The solution describes the relationship and discusses some possible mechanisms by which the drought tolerance is conferred. The solution is 1600 words not including the extensive reference list. In periods of low water, plants rely of symbiotic relationships with VAM.
