"More than 33,000 species—including certain clubmosses, ferns, liverworts & all orchids—are initially mycoheterotrophic during early development. About 600 #plants, nearly half of which are #orchids, fully abandoned photosynthesis and depend on #fungi throughout their lives... #Mycoheterotrophy evolved independently more than 40 times. The strategy could be an adaption to surviving in dense forests where light is scarce"
