Plant-Insect Interactions and Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Symbiosis
Pea aphids feeding on barrel medic shoots
Glomus versiforme sporocarps formed on leek/G. versiforme cultures. The G. versiforme spores were obtained from Dr. Maria Harrison (Boyce Thompson Institute).
Barrel medic root colonized by the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus, Glomus versiforme.
Roots were cleared and the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal structures that grow inside the root were stained with WGA AlexaFluor 488. Micrograph obtained by epifluorescence microscopy.
