Abstract:
AbstractThe mycorrhizal status of Arbutus unedo L. was tested in its natural ecosystem, and the development of mycorrhizal colonization was followed during the early stages of plant growth. Two different types of ectoendomycorrhizae occurred in nature, only one of which was synthesized in experimental conditions. The behaviour of the ericoid fungus Hymenoscypus ericae and six vesicular-arbuscular endophytes were tested on the non-host plant A. unedo.
