The effects of liming on mycelial colonization and carbon allocation in ectomycorrhizal mycelia attached to Pinus silvestris plants

Abstract

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.
