What is the function of haustorium in parasitic fungi?
Almost 80% of plants with roots participate in mutualistic symbiosis with fungus. Mycorrhiza, a “fungus root”, forms haustoria, the portion of the parasitic fungus which penetrates the root systems of other plants in order to intercept the nutrients going into the plant. However, as mentioned above, mycorrhiza roots participate in mutualistic symbiosis, which means that the mycorrhiza do not just take, but they give as well. The haustoria gives the plant certain minerals the plant cannot absorb from the soil. --A.S.
