Genetic Transformation of Ectomycorrhizal Fungi
1995If Albert Einstein had investigated ectomycorrhizal symbiosis, he might well have devised a formula for same to read as follows: E = mc2, where the efficiency (E) of the symbiosis is somehow related to the mass (m) of mycelium colonizing the cortex (c) of the plant root. Granted such a formula is far too empirical to be taken seriously, but nonetheless

Molecular Genetics of Ectomycorrhizal Fungi
2000The mycorrhizal associations have evolved as a survival mechanism for both fungi and plants. These associations are as old as land plants. Ectomycorrhizal plants have evolved along with many of their ectomycorrhizal fungal partners (Miller and Walting, 1987; Nicolson, 1975).

18 Maintenance of Ectomycorrhizal Fungi
1991Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the maintenance of ectomycorrhizal fungi. When starting a collection of ectomycorrhizal fungi, it is desirable to obtain cultures from well-known collections or from other ectomycorrhiza research workers. To reduce labor and to allow comparisons between old cultures and fresh isolates, safe, easy, economical ...

RNA Silencing in Ectomycorrhizal Fungi
2010The symbiotic phase in the life-cycle of ectomycorrhizal basidiomycetes is the dikaryon. Thus, fungal studies on symbiotic gene function would require the inactivation of both gene copies in the dikaryotic mycelium. Several unsuccessful attempts have demonstrated that with the low homologous recombination rates shown by this group of fungi such double ...

Maintenance methods for ectomycorrhizal fungi
Agriculture, Ecosystems & Environment, 1990Abstract Sterile water as a preserving medium for ectomycorrhizal fungi from agar culture plugs seems to be the best method tested. Storage the cultures at 4 °C is recommended but room temperature is also satisfactory. Fungal strains tested (23 of 24) and stored in water for 3 months at 4 °C gave clear growth when reinoculated.
