Description
Summary:The relationship of mycorrhizal fungi of radiata pine ( Pinus radiata D. Don) seedlings in nurseries and trees in forests was studied. The results showed that in most cases the dominant mycorrhizal fungi did not change when nursery seedlings are transplanted into forest soil but in some cases the dominant mycorrhizal fungi changed dramatically. There was some evidence that soil type and soil fertility could have played important roles in these changes.
