The roots of saprophytic plants contain microbes. Which are those microbes? |

Answer» Answer: Saprotrophic MICROSCOPIC fungi are sometimes called saprobes; saprotrophic PLANTS or bacterial flora are called saprophytes (sapro- + -phyte, "rotten material" + "plant"), though it is now BELIEVED that all plants PREVIOUSLY thought to be saprotrophic are in fact PARASITES of microscopic fungi or other plants. |
