Corallorhiza trifida, commonly known as early coralroot, northern coralroot, or yellow coralroot, is a coralroot orchid native to North America and Eurasia, with a circumboreal distribution. The species has been reported from the United States , Canada , Russia , China , Japan , Korea, India , Nepal, Kashmir, Pakistan , and almost every country in Europe.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]
Description
Corallorhiza trifida is yellowish green in color, leafless, and partially myco-heterotrophic, deriving some, but not all of its nutrients from association with fungi of genus Tomentella.[10] It also contains chlorophyll, with which it supplies some of its own carbon nutrition via autotrophy.[10]
