Nested PCR detection of Archaea in defined compartments of pine mycorrhizospheres developed in boreal forest humus microcosms.

چکیده
Archaea colonising defined compartments of Scots pine Suillus bovinus or Paxillus involutus mycorrhizospheres developed in forest humus-containing microcosms were investigated by nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR), cloning, restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and sequencing. Archaea representing six RFLP groups were detected in the system. Sequence analysis of clones representing the different RFLP types confirmed the presence of novel Finnish forest soil Crenarchaeota. Archaeal sequences were identified from mycorrhizas of both P. involutus and S. bovinus, at the margins of the external mycelium and in uncolonised humus but not from non-mycorrhizal short roots. Fungal and compartment-specific crenarchaeal occupation of mycorrhizospheres is discussed in relation to bacterial community distribution in similar systems.

Heterogeneity in soil animal communities and the development of humus forms
Two examples are given of strong relationships between the activity of soil animals and the development of humus forms in a mountain spruce forest and a lowland Scots pine stand. Both were based on field distributions of fauna and humus components. The vertical heterogeneity of soil animal communities in a moder humus profile under Scots pine is related to successional processes occurring durin...
متن کاملDetection of the phytoplasmal agent of pear decline in Iran, Isfahan province, using nested-PCR
Pear decline is a very important phytoplasma disease that causes considerable quantitative and qualitative losses to this fruit crop. Due to economical importance of pear in Isfahan province, Iran, and the difficulty to determine the occurrence of the disease simply based on symptoms in orchards, a detection method for the phytoplasma causing disease in pears in the region was developed. Since ...
متن کاملDetection of Ornithobilharzia turkestanikum cercaria (trematoda) by nested-PCR in intermediate host snail, Lymnaea gedrosiana
Trematodes are important in economic and public health. Ornithobilharzia turkestanicum (O. turkestanicum) is one of the important economic trematodes in domestic animals. Ornithobilharzia infection in intermediate host (Lymnaea gedrosiana ) can be detected by either exposing snails to light to induce cercarial shedding or by squeezing them between glass slides to detect parasites. The current...
متن کاملEffects of Fire on Ectomycorrhizal Fungi in Fennoscandian Boreal Forests
Fire, the primary natural disturbance factor in Fennoscandian boreal forests, is considered to have exerted major selection pressure on most boreal forest organisms. However, recent studies show that few ectomycorrhizal (EM) fungi appear to have evolved post-fi re adaptations, no succession of EM fungi following fi re is apparent after low intensity fi res, and only two EM fungal taxa exclusive...
متن کاملThe effects of forestry practices on ectomycorrhizal fungal communities and seedling establishment Integrated studies on biodiversity, podzol profile, clear-cut logging impacts and seedling inoculation
Ectomycorrhizal fungi form symbioses with all the major tree species in the boreal forest zone and they are of key importance in nutrient acquisition, plant protection against root pathogens and drought stress. Their diversity and the impacts of forestry practises on these highly important organisms is therefore of great interest. The aim of the study was to describe ectomycorrhizal biodiversit...
