Ectomycorrhizal fungi are essential to seedling establishment in disturbed sites. This
dissertation examines the effects of trace metals and soil disturbance on ectomycorrhizal …

Identification of the fungi forming ectomycorrhiza is still a great challenge. Much of
knowledge on fungal diversity resulted from field surveys of sporocarps. Two methods are …

Peatlands are habitats where peat accumulation exceeds decomposition, resulting in poorly
drained, nutrient-poor and acidic soils. Tamarack {Lxirix lariciiia, family Pinaceae), a …

Before the arrival of Euro-Americans, the inland Pacific Northwest was settled by native
people whose frequent intentional burning of the landscape promoted open stands …

Ectomycorrhizal fungi (EMF) may colonize new seedlings either by vegetative growth of
hyphae from established mycelia in the soil or by spore. Seedlings that are colonized by …

Mountain ecosystems consist of elevational dines in climatic and soil conditions, which can
influence tree growth morphology and adaptation. This study characterizes influences of …

To test the effects of liming (V500 kg/hectare) and the cutting of V1000 m 2 gaps on the
formation of mushrooms in a yellow birch/sugar maple (Acer saccharum Marsh.) forest, all …

Plant communities rely on the belowground microbial community for nutrient uptake,
pathogen resistance, growth and establishment. Although the importance of soil …
