mycorrhizal fungi.
A well-known symbiotic relationship of ferns is with mycorrhizal fungi. This relationship is known as mycorrhizas, meaning “fungus-root,” and it is a mutualistic symbiosis between fungus and root systems of plants. Mutualistic symbiosis means that these two organisms live together and each benefit from the other.
Since the symbiotic relationship between the fern and its host tree results in the fern benefiting (a place to live, gaining nourishment from elements collecting and moving along the tree’s bark) while the host is not affected at all, the relationship is called commensalism (if the fern benefited and the host was damaged, the relationship would be called parasitism; if both benefited, it would be mutualism).
