Reviews

The book brings together a group of well-respected experts in their particular fields of mycology and ecology. ... The editor, authors and publishing staff did an excellent job on the content, style, and format of this book. Overall, I can recommend this book as a reference source for scientists already involved in mycorrhizal research, and as a scoping source for scientists from other disciplines looking for a manageable and well-studied example of a symbiotic system. (Richard O'Hanlon, Symbiosis, January, 2016)
