Inorganic nitrogen availability alters Eucalyptus grandis receptivity to the ectomycorrhizal fungus Pisolithus albus but not symbiotic nitrogen transfer. [PDF]
Forest trees are able to thrive in nutrient-poor soils in part because they obtain growth-limiting nutrients, especially nitrogen (N), through mutualistic symbiosis with ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi.

Seed and seedling responses to inoculation with mycorrhizal fungi and root nodule bacteria: implications for restoration of degraded Mediterranean-type Tuart woodlands [PDF]
Inoculation with beneficial soil microorganisms has the potential to enhance success of restoration, particularly in harsh Mediterranean-type ecosystems (MTEs).

Mycorrhizal induction of phenolic compounds and antioxidant properties of fungi and seedlings during the early steps of symbiosis. [PDF]
Ectomycorrhizal (ECM) symbiosis plays a major role in nutrient cycling and the functioning of forest ecosystems. Trees with well developed ectomycorrhizas are more resistant to environmental stresses such as drought and to biotic stresses such as root ...

Effect of ectomycorrhizal fungi on survival and growth of micropropagated plants and seedlings of Castanea sativa Mill. [PDF]
Four ectomycorrhizal fungi (Amanita muscaria, Laccaria laccata, Piloderma croceum and Pisolithus tinctorius) were used to produce mycorrhiza on seedlings and micropropagated plants of Castanea sativa in vitro. Pisolithus tinctorius was most effective in

A comparative study of tocopherols composition and antioxidant properties of in vivo and in vitro ectomycorrhizal fungi [PDF]
In aerobic organisms, the free radicals are constantly being produced during the normal cellular metabolism. The antioxidant properties of many organisms and particularly of wild mushrooms with their content in antioxidant compounds such as tocopherols,

EFFECTS OF SOIL STERILIZATION ON THE FORMATION AND FUNCTION OF TWO STRAINS OF PISOLITHUS TINCTORIUS ON EUCALYPTUS UROPHYLLA*) [PDF]
To examine the effects of soil microbial population on mycorrhizal development and function, Eucalyptus urophylla seedlings were inoculated with two Pisolithus tinctorius isolates and grown in sterile, partly sterile and non ...

A new process to promote the use of controlled mycorrhization practice in forest nurseries [PDF]
The aims of this study were to test a new mycorrhizal inoculation process using a “catalyser” of the mycorrhizal establishment (termite mounds of Macrotermes subhyalinus) to minimize the requested volume of fungal inoculum added to the cultural substrate.

Antioxidants in Pinus Pinaster roots and mycorrhizal fungi during the early steps of symbiosis [PDF]
Ectomycorrhizal symbiosis between fungi mycelia and the roots of some plants could have important effects in the levels of antioxidants of both partners. In the present work, the effects of co-culture period in the antioxidant properties and antioxidants

Crescimento e tolerância de Ilex paraguariensis A. St.-Hil. inoculados com fungos ectomicorrízicos em solo contaminado com cobre [PDF]
O cobre é um dos principais metais pesados contaminantes do solo. As plantas diferenciam-se quanto à sua tolerância e toxicidade, o que lhes permite crescer e produzir até mesmo em solos com altas concentrações.
