Paris- type mycorrhiza is described in Smilax aspera L., an evergreen climbing plant of Mediterranean sclerophyllous woods. Wild plants were sampled from a protected area inside the Regional Natural Park Migliarino-S.Rossore-Massaciuccoli, on the northwestern coast of Italy, near Pisa. Mycorrhizas formed by S. aspera were identified as a variation of Paris-type arbuscular mycorrhizas. Detailed observations on stained roots and on fresh root sections showed that, after forming the appressorium, the fungus colonized the root by penetrating individual cells, growing intracellularly from cell to cell, and producing many coils and terminal arbuscules. S. aspera seedlings inoculated with the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi Glomus mosseae and G. viscosum, which are known to form Arum-type mycorrhizas in many plant species, produced the same Paris-type-like mycorrhizas found in nature. This confirms that the type of arbuscular mycorrhizal infection is largely governed by the plant host genotype. Plants of S. aspera inoculated with G. mosseae and G. viscosum had larger growth increments than uninoculated plants. Thus Paris-type mycorrhizas produce growth responses comparable to those of Arum-type mycorrhizas.
