Actinomycete Gk. aktis - ray, mukes - fungus.

Group of heterotropic filamentous eubacteria tending to form extremely fine ramified mycelia. They multiply by mere breaking of the mycelium or by hyphae. The most common genera in soil (Streptomyces and Nocardia) are particularly able to degrade organic substances which cannot easily by decomposed, thereby producing vitamins and antibiotics. Being aerobic, their presence in a soil signifies good structure and good aeration. They can be symbiotic with some higher plants such as Alnus and Myrica

karmaxul Reviewed by karmaxul on . mycorrhiza fungi The mycorrhiza fungi are specific group of fungi that act as a symbiot with the plant. In exchange for glucose that the plant produces it will take over and help the plant with a couple of important tasks like: -Taking in nutrients -Taking in water -Soil structure improvement -Better resistancy against diseases and "bad" fungi The mycorrhiza looks like a net through the ground and acts like additional rooting. I've been experimenting with it for a while now and I get much better Rating: 5
