“Ghost Flowers” http://www.naturealmanac.com/archive/ghost_flowers/ghost_flowers.html “Green plants pay their way with their fungal symbionts by providing sugars and other nutrients that the fungi themselves are unable to manufacture for themselves. Since the Ghost Flowers lack chlorophyll but still obtain nutrients from their fungal partners it appears that they are parasites in the classic sense - organisms that take without returning anything to the partnership - indirectly parasitizing the trees that partner with the fungus. But recent research in Japan and California is upsetting this simplistic view. Scientists studying plants with habits identical to our Ghost Flowers have discovered that these supposed parasites have a beneficial effect on the fungi they supposedly parasitize by increasing their numbers in the soil. No one yet has any conclusive evidence as to how they do this (though it's almost certainly chemical), but fungal populations surrounding these plants are orders of magnitude higher than they are just a few yards away. The data shows that these fungus-eating plants that lack chlorophyll stimulate their fungal partners into increased growth and higher populations thereby promoting higher nutrient uptake in the trees that are symbiotically attached to the fungus. In short the tree benefits by getting more nutrients than it ordinarily would, the fungi benefit from higher populations than they would ordinarily attain and the supposed "parasites" feast on a percentage of the surplus they themselves create. Our Ghost flowers turn out to be tiny (if complicated) fertilizer factories! In the Grand Scheme of Things our Ghost Flowers are pretty insignificant and it's certain that trees and forests would survive without their continued presence, but they're interesting, unusual and fascinating organisms. And while our ignorance concerning these amazing and highly specialized little plants is almost total they do teach us the importance of not jumping to conclusions about the organisms sharing our world and their place in it, since nearly every past assumption made about these little guys has been absolutely wrong.” IP: Logged |
