This paper provides information on the results of different studies conducted on: chitinase activity in plants induced by ectomycorrhizal fungal infection; chitinase activity in plants induced by vesicular arbuscular mycorrhizal (VAM) infection; chitin synthases in VAM fungi; chitin synthases in ectomycorrhizal fungi; utilization of chitin as nitrogen source by mycorrhizal fungi; and chitin decomposing organisms associated with VAM spores. |
