Fungi are an understudied, biotechnologically valuable group of organisms. Due to the
immense range of habitats that fungi inhabit, and the consequent need to compete against a …

A greenhouse experiment was used to study the effects of host genotype on short root
formation and ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungal community structure in Norway spruce (Picea …

The effectiveness of ectomycorrhizal inoculation at the tree nursery seedling production
stage on growth and survival was examined in jack pine (Pinus banksiana) and white …

We studied the role of taxonomical and functional ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungal diversity in
root formation and nutrient uptake by Norway spruce (Picea abies) seedlings with fast‐and …

Endophytic fungi show no symptoms of their presence but can influence the performance
and vitality of host trees. The potential use of endophytes to indicate vitality has been …

In recent years increased fertilization provided to tree seedlings in the nursery in the
previous autumn has been introduced in order to promote good outplanting performance. In …

Mycorrhizal inoculation of conifer roots is a key strategy to optimize establishment and
performance of forest tree species under both natural and cultivated conditions and also to …

Thelephora is a genus of ectomycorrhizal basidiomycetes with basidiomes of varied shape

A substantial amount of below‐ground carbon (C) is suggested to be associated with fungi,
which may significantly affect the soil C balance in forested ecosystems. Ergosterol from in …

Selection of high quality seedling material is an essential prerequisite for successful
reforestation and characteristics of the seedlings produced under different cultivation …
