TRV58 belongs to mycorrhizal phenotype 3 and is classified as Nod-. Phenotype 3 showed thick lens-shaped appressoria with no intercellular hyphae developing from them and normal appressoria leading to the formation of arbuscules on the same root system. For all the mutants belonging to mycorrhizal phenotype 3, the mycorrhizal fungus G. intraradices forms significantly much more typical AM structures than G. mosseae.
