situ together with their host organisms and demonstrate the existence of different
types of fungal associations and interactions, including arbuscular mycorrhizas
(Taylor et al. 1995, 2005b; Brundrett et al. 2018; Walker et al. 2018), and parasitism
of land plants, algae, other fungi, and possibly animals (see below).
