Atractiellomycetes belonging to the rust lineage (Pucciniomycotina) form mycorrhizae with terrestrial and epiphytic neotropical orchids

Distinctive groups of fungi are involved in the diverse mycorrhizal associations of land plants. All previously known mycorrhiza-forming Basidiomycota associated with trees, ericads, liverworts or orchids are hosted in Agaricomycetes, Agaricomycotina. Here we demonstrate for the first time that Atra...
