A study of the mycorrhizal associations of Paulownia taiwaniana
Item type: Journal Article • Journal: South African Journal of Plant and Soil • Authors: D. G.M. Donald --- Department of Silviculture, Republic of South Africa T.W. Hu --- Department of Forestry, Republic of China W-E. Cheng --- , Republic of ChinaThe mycorrhizal relationship of Paulownia taiwaniana was investigated on trees from six sites. The species exhibits an endomycorrhizal relationship. Soil spore counts and root colonization levels varied appreciably both between and within sites. Soil from the site with the lowest... -
Occurrence of dark septate endophytes in Nothofagus seedlings from Patagonia, Argentina
Item type: Journal Article • Journal: Southern Forests: a Journal of Forest Science • Authors: María E Salgado Salomón --- , Argentina Carolina Barroetaveña --- , Argentina Mario Rajchenberg --- , ArgentinaTemperate forests of southern Argentina and Chile cover a wide latitudinal and altitudinal range on both sides of the Andes, with Nothofagus species being one of the main tree species. Most of the larger remnants are protected within the limits... -
The effect of the colonisation extent of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi on the growth of pot grown Pterocarpus angolensis seedlings
Item type: Journal Article • Journal: The Southern African Forestry Journal • Authors: S.N. Hengar --- Department of Forest Science, USA A.J. Valentine --- Department of Environmental Science, USA J.M. Theron --- Department of Forest Science, USAThe effect of the level of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) colonisation on the growth of Pterocarpus angolensis was studied. Mycorrhizal infected seedlings, showing either good or poor growth, under the same environmental conditions (temperature, humidity, light level) were analyzed for... -
Effect of ectomycorrhizal fungi in the protection of Uapaca kirkiana seedlings against root pathogens in Zimbabwe
Item type: Journal Article • Journal: Southern Forests: a Journal of Forest Science • Authors: K Ramachela --- Department of Forest and Wood Science, South Africa JM Theron --- Department of Forest and Wood Science, South AfricaInvestigations carried out on the use of ectomycorhhizal fungi in the management of Uapaca kirkiana root diseases caused by three pathogens (Rhizoctonia solani, Phytophthora parasitica and Pseudomonas solani) revealed that different mycorrhizal fungi vary in their ability to protect roots... -
Influences of the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus Glomus mosseae on morphophysiological traits and biochemical compounds of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) under drought stress
Item type: Journal Article • Journal: South African Journal of Plant and Soil • Authors: Ali Ganjeali --- Department of Biology, Faculty of Sciences, Iran Elham Ashiani --- Department of Biology, Faculty of Sciences, Iran Maryam Zare --- Department of Biology, Faculty of Sciences, Iran Elahe Tabasi --- Department of Biology, Faculty of Sciences, IranThe symbiosis of arbuscular mycorrhizae (AM) with plant roots can enhance plant responses, especially to drought stress. An experiment was conducted in a growth chamber to examine the impacts of arbuscular mycorrhizae on improving the drought tolerance of common bean... -
Improved parameters of Pinus greggii seedling growth and health after inoculation with ectomycorrhizal fungi
Item type: Journal Article • Journal: Southern Forests: a Journal of Forest Science • Authors: Rebeca Casique Valdés --- Department of Horticulture, Mexico Rosalinda Mendoza Villarreal --- Department of Horticulture, Mexico Fernando Galindo García --- Department of Horticulture, Mexico Susana González Morales --- Department of Horticulture, Mexico Sergio Sanchez Peña --- Department of Parasitology, MexicoPinus greggii Engelm. ex Parl. is an endemic pine of Mexico with notorious adaptability to eroded, shallow and poor soils. It is widely used in reforestation programmes worldwide. The purpose of the present study is to develop an ectomycorrhizal fungi...
