    Author : Abdallah Awad; [2012]
    Keywords : ectomycorrhizal fungi; granite; serpentinite; amphipolite; community composition; diversity; organic horizon; mineral horizon; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Abstract Nutrient availability is one of the most important components of soil chemistry, and has Been shown to strongly impact ectomycorrhizal community composition and diversity. Phosphorous, magnesium, and potassium are important macronutrients for plant growth. READ MORE

    Keywords : Leptodontidium sp.; soil fungi; ammonium mineralization; phylogeny; boreal forest;

    Abstract : Many studies on global elements fluxes neglect biological aspects or simply refer to them unspecifiedly as biological activity. The advent of molecular tools to investigate these ac-tivities has although given rise to a further understanding of the matter. READ MORE

  5. 14. Evaluation of an ectomycorrhizal macrofungi as an indicator species of high conservation value pine-heath forests in northern Sweden

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and Management

    Author : Jenny Lindman; [2010]
    Keywords : continuity; disturbance; ectomycorrhizal EM fungi; habitat requirements; indicator species; microclimate; pine-heath forest; Sarcodon scabrosus;

    Abstract : Since the 1950s, the development of modern rotation forestry in boreal Fennoscandia has resulted in a severe reduction of older forests, and a high degree of fragmentation among the small patches that remains of old forest. In Sweden, when performing conservation value assessments in order to identify and preserve the remaining forest habitats, the government authorities use to a significant extent a set of indicator species that indicate habitats of high biological conservation value.

  6. 15. Inokulering med två hjorttryfflar på arginingödslade täckrotsplantor i Gideå plantskola

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Mycology and Plant Pathology

    Author : Lisa Edvardsson; [2009]
    Keywords : mykorrhiza; elaphomyces muricatus; elaphomyces granulatus; plantskola; arginin; wallco;

    Abstract : The effect of inoculation on containerized pine and spruce seedlings in a nursery with two ectomycorrhizal fungi was investigated in regard to the development of mycorrhiza and plant growth. The fungi were Elaphomyces muricatus and Elaphomyces granulates and the inoculated seedlings were compared to an uninoculated control. READ MORE
