The evolution of sexual reproduction is a great puzzle in modern evolutionary biology. Many groups of eukaryotic organisms, especially most animals and plants, reproduce sexually. The evolution of sex between two organisms of the same species contains two related but different themes: its origin and its maintenance. However, since hypotheses for the origin of sex are difficult to test experimentally, most of the current work has focused on the maintenance of sexual reproduction. Biologists, including W. D. Hamilton, Alexei Kondrashov, and George C. Williams, have proposed various explanations for how sexual reproduction is maintained in a large set of different living things.

Fungi of the phylum Basidiomycota form mycorrhizal
Reika [66]

Answer:

The orchids derive nutrients from the association at very young stages of its life cycle while the fungi obtain water and organic matter

Explanation:

As stated in this question, fungi species belonging to the phylum Basidiomycota form mycorrhizal associations with a flowering plant called orchids. This relationship is a mutualistic one because both participants benefit from the relationship.

In this association, the young orchid plant relies on the mycorrhizal fungi's metabolism to get nutrients needed for its development in form of carbohydrates while the fungi in return gets water (from the roots of the plant) and organic matter.
