COTTET, Agustina C  and  MESSUTI, María Inés. Identificación del tipo morfológico de micorriza arbuscular en Phaeoceros laevis (Anthocerotophyta). Bol. Soc. Argent. Bot. [online]. 2017, vol.52, n.2, pp.291-293. ISSN 1851-2372.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal have been registered for different representatives of Phylum Anthocerotophyta, including Phaeoceros laevis (L.) Prosk. In this paper we report the morphological type colonization by arbuscular mycorhyzal fungi in P. laevis, which corresponds to an intermediate between Arum-type and Paris-type. In addition, this association is mentioned for the first time for temperate forest of southern hemisphere. Brief descriptions and images of the characteristic structures of the arbuscular mycorrhiza present in P. laevis are presented.
