Fig. 62.—Endotrophio mycorhiza in epider- mal cells of the root of Andromeda polifolia, the root shown in cross-section. the root is covered with hyphae some of which branch out into the soil and attach themselves to particles of humus. In other cases the fungus hyphae are found within the cells of the root (endotrophio mycorhiza), as in the case of Andromeda polifolia (Fig. 62). Here the hyphae occur in the large cells of the root epidermis.
