- Observation Initial hyphal contact, early mantle formation and mature mantle formation were distinguished.
- Observation Interactions between hyphae and birch root hairs were frequent.
- Observation Birch epidermal cells elongated radially as the Hartig net developed.
- Observation Repeated Hartig net hyphal branching produced extensive fine branches and compartmentalized cytoplasm.
- Observation Nuclei and elongated mitochondria frequently occupied narrow hyphal cytoplasmic compartments.
- Observation Thickenings of an unresolved type developed along birch cortical cell walls in primary roots.
