This calls into question some basic assumptions that have long been held regarding nitrogen fixing symbiotic relationships. Biological symbiosis means a prolonged living arrangement or physical association among members of two or more different species. Further, the study shows that it may be possible to introduce this new type of symbiotic relationships into a broader range of crops than previously thought possible. The symbiotic a) a kind of symbiotic association b) a kind The benefit of algae in this association is. MCQ on Lichens- Introduction and Habitat. Biology Multiple Choice Questions and Answers for Different Competitive Exams. The molecular biology behind the new symbiotic relationship is different from all other known associations for nitrogen fixing systems. Symbiosis is a Greek word that means “living together.” In one type of symbiosis, known as mutualism, both partners benefit from the association. Actinorhizal plants have the ability to form root nodules in symbiotic association with the soil actinomycete Frankia and are capable of high rates of nitrogen fixation, comparable to those of legumes [1–3]. Mark Brundrett's web site provides an excellent introduction to the different types of mycorrhizal symbioses. In AM association, the fungal hyphae penetrates host roots to form intracellular arbuscules and vesicles. Symbiosis, a close association between two different organisms.
