These structures in the "roots:" of early land plants fossilized in the Rhynie Chert (350 MYBP) are regarded as vesicles of an early endomycorrhizal fungus.
Section of outer layers of an ectomycorrhizal root of Pinus strobus, showing some of the mantle and the Hartig net the latter formed by hyphae of the mycobiont, Pisolithus tinctorius, penetrating between the cortical cells of the root.
