Ectomycorrhizal community composition of Pinus tabulaeformis assessed by ITS-RFLP and ITS sequences
نویسندگان
چکیده
Ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungal composition was examined in a Pinus tabulaeformis Carr. forest. A total of 28 root samples of P. tabulaeformis were collected in June and September. Thirty-five ECM morphotypes were identified according to ECM morphological characters, and 26 ECM fungi were identified based on the analyses of ITS-RFLP and ITS sequences. Tomentella, Sebacina, and Tuber were common genera, and Atheliaceae sp., Lactarius deliciosus, Tomentella ferruginea, and Tomentella sp. 3 were dominant species. Of these ECM fungi, 13 were found in June, 19 in September, and 6 during both sampling times. Atheliaceae sp. and T. ferruginea were the dominant fungi both in June and September. Lactarius deliciosus was dominant in June, but rare in September. Tomentella sp. 3 was dominant in September but rare in June.

Effects of Different Ectomycorrhizal Fungal Inoculates on the Growth of Pinus tabulaeformis Seedlings under Greenhouse Conditions
The tree species Pinus tabulaeformis Carr. (P. tabulaeformis) is commonly planted in China due to its economic and ecological value. In order to identify one or more ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungal species for future P. tabulaeformis afforestation, we investigated the effects of five ECM fungal species: Laccaria laccata, Boletus edulis, Gomphidius viscidus, Suillus grevillei, and Suillus luteus on...
متن کاملCharacterization of Pinus ectomycorrhizas from mixed conifer and pygmy forests using morphotyping and molecular methods
We used morphotyping and molecular methods to characterize ectomycorrhizas of bishop pine (Pinus muricata D. Don) and Bolander pine (Pinus contorta ssp. bolanderi (Parl.) Critchf.) from mixed conifer and hydric pygmy forests on the northern California coast. Sixteen ectomycorrhizal morphotypes were described, producing 15 internal transcribed spacer restriction fragment length polymorphism (ITS...
متن کاملGenetic diversity and taxonomic status of Pinus tabulaeformis f. shekanensis revealed by ISSR markers.
Pinus tabulaeformis f. shekanensis is a rare taxon endemic in the Ziwuling Loess Plateau, of which only one population is known. Inter-simple sequence repeat molecular markers were employed to compare the taxon's genetic diversity with its 4 nearest wild relatives (P. tabulaeformis, P. tabulaeformis var. mukdensis, P. massoniana, and P. henryi) to assess the taxonomic status of P. tabulaeformis...
متن کاملGenetic composition and diploid hybrid speciation of a high mountain pine, Pinus densata, native to the Tibetan plateau.
Pinus densata has been suggested to have originated from hybridization events involving P. tabulaeformis and P. yunnanensis. In this study, allozyme differentiation at 12 loci was studied in 14 populations of P. tabulaeformis, P. densata, and P. yunnanensis from China. The observed genetic composition of P. densata supported the hybrid hypothesis and showed varying degrees of contribution from ...
متن کاملRhizopogon spore bank communities within and among California pine forests.
In this study we examine the distribution of Rhizopogon species in spore banks from five California pine forests. Four of the forest sites were discontinuous populations of Pinus muricata and a fifth was a Pinus ponderosa stand in Sierra National Forest. Rhizopogon species were retrieved by bioassaying the soils with pine seedlings followed by isolation of axenic cultures from individual root t...
