The effects of liming on mycelial colonization and carbon allocation in ectomycorrhizal mycelia attached to Pinus silvestris plants
Author
Summary, in English
The effects of liming on ectomycorrhizal mycelial colonization and carbon
allocation were assessed using Pinus silvestris plants grown in
association with an ectomycorrhizal fungus. Plants were placed in perspex
growth chambers divided by a central partition so that soils of different
pH could be used on either side of the chambers. Differences between the
growth form and growth rates of the fungi and allocation of plant
assimilate were determined at different pH values.
