“…and Paphiopedilum spp., and T. calospora, another frequent orchid associate, are not clear. Many photosynthetic orchid species are capable of extracting fungal energy as adults, a condition referred to as partial mycoheterotrophy (Gebauer, Preiss, & Gebauer, 2016;Selosse, Charpin, & Not, 2017), and some species have evolved to utilize fungal carbon exclusively (Selosse, Bocayuva, Kasuya, & Courty, 2016;Selosse et al, 2017). These fungi are generally thought to act as saprotrophs in forest environments (Rasmussen, 1995;Roberts, 1999), although Tulasnella asymmetrica is a fungus known to be facultatively ectomycorrhizal and exploited by mycoheterotrophic liverworts, as well (Bidartondo, Bruns, Weiß, Sérgio, & Read, 2003;Oberwinkler, Cruz, & Suárez, 2017).…”
