Can the malachite green dye in hydroseeding mulch be harmful to mycorrhizae when using both of them together in a slurry?

Considering a few drops of 0.038% malachite green is used in a 100 gallon aquarium to kill fungus infections in fish and considering mycorrhizae is a fungus, of course the green dye in mulches kills any mycorrhizae added. Using the two together is a huge waste of money. Dave B.

What is the name of the symbiotic association between a fungus and a photosynthetic organism?
There are several symbiotic relationships that fungi have with photosynthetic organisms. Two are mutualisms: lichens and mycorrhizae. In lichens, the fungi pair with alage to produce a structure and relationship that allows both to survive in habitats neither could survive in on their own. Mycorrhizae are fungi that grow on or in plant roots. Occassionally, they help the plant out by expanding the surface area over which nutrients and water can be absorbed into the plant. Sometimes, though, the mycorrhizae form a parasitic relationship and simply steal sugars from the roots. There is some evidence that mycorrhizae can also protect roots from pathogens. There are many pathogenic fungi that also have symbiotic relationships with plants. (A symbiotic relationshis is simply a relationship in which two or more organisms live in very close association--usually on or within one another. They can be beneficial or harmful.) The best examples of these are the rusts, smuts, and powdery mildews. (My favorites are the members of the genra Physocladia and Urophlyctis.) There are also several commensal relationships, which means there is a symbiosis but it is not clear if it is beneficial or harmful. These include the endophytes. These are fungi that live within plant tissue but produce no visible signs of damage. The only way of detecting them is to stain for them or convince them to grow on agar.
