説明 | Commonly known as Corpse Plant, Ghost Plant, and Indian Pipe, this plant has a huge range. It can grow in some very dark places, because it does not need light for photosynthesis. It is not a fungus, but rather an oddball plant that may harken back to a distant plants. Instead of using photosynthesis to get its nutrients, it gets its food from mycorrhizal fungi, which live in the soil around tree roots. Mycorrhizal fungi has a symbiotic relationship with trees; it gives the trees nutrients that it takes from the soil, and the tree in turn gives it nutrients, which it gets from the process of photosynthesis. Monotropa uniflora, the corpse plant, is related to the blueberry and is fussy about which fungi it will feed from. Usually, it takes nutrients only from fungi that grow on the roots of oaks, pines, and beech trees. |
