FAQ About Fungi and Indoor Plant Symbiosis
What types of fungi are commonly associated with indoor plants?
The most common type of fungi associated with indoor plants are mycorrhizal fungi, including arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). These fungi form partnerships with plant roots to aid in nutrient uptake. Some indoor plants might also form symbiotic relationships with ectomycorrhizal fungi, though these are less common in indoor environments.
