EctomycorrhizaeEctomycorrhizaeEctomycorrhizae occur in almost all tree species in
temperate and boreal forests. Short growing seasons in these areas limit decomposition and create nitrogen
stress. The fungi release peptidases (exoenzymes) that break down proteins, releasing N-containing compounds.

EndomycorrhizaeEndomycorrhizae
Endomycorrhizae are found in ~80% of all plants, especially in warm/tropical grasslands
and forests. They help supply phosphorus to the plants.
