This chapter summarizes research on mycorrhiza and gentians published to date. In brief, all gentians investigated were colonized by AMF and this colonization always had a specific morphology. AMF may play an important role in the life cycle of gentians. For example, several lineages of achlorophyllous mycoheterotrophic gentians showed greatest host specificity known so far in AM. The role of AMF in the growth and development of Gentianaceae is discussed in detail.
