Funneliformis mosseae is a species of fungus in the family Glomeraceae, which is an arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi that forms symbiotic relationships with plant roots.

[1] Funneliformis are characterized by having an easily visible septum in the area of the spore base and are often cylindrical or funnel-shaped.

[2] Funneliformis is an easily cultivated species which multiplies well in trap culture, along with its high distribution, F. mosseae is not considered endangered and is often used for experimental purposes when combined with another host.

It is widespread in the Pacific Northwest, Midwest, Hawaii, England, Scotland, Germany, Australia, New Zealand and Pakistan.

[6] One of the common uses of Funneliformis mosseae is in scientific research to study the ways in which AM fungi interact with their plant hosts.

Many of these studies aim to determine the ways in which AM fungus relationships to plants can alter the conditions of the environment for growth.
