Endotrophic mycorrhiza is a type of plant-fungus relationship where the fungal partner lives inside the plant roots, forming structures called arbuscules or vesicles. The fungus helps the plant by increasing nutrient uptake, particularly phosphorus, in exchange for receiving sugars from the plant.

How are vesicular arbuscular mycorrhizae mass produced?
mass production of vesicular and arbuscular mycorrhiza
What tissue that plants use to take water from soil?
Root hairs and or symbiotic mycorrhiza.
Why does the mycorrhiza and tree have a mutualistic relationship?
Mutualism means they both benefit each other. The mycorrhiza (from the fungus) benefit the tree by gathering water and nutrients from farther than the roots go in the ground, and bringing it to the tree. The tree benefits the fungus by bringing it sugars produced by photosynthesis.
