Growth of Pinus arizonica Engelm. plants inoculated with Pisolithus tinctorius and Astraeus hygrometricus under greenhouse conditions

Abstract

Inoculation with ectomycorrhizal fungi (EMF) improved the growth of P. arizonica Plants inoculated with EMF had higher survival and higher mineral content EMF can establish ymbiosis with P. arizonica at low inoculation volumes The smallest dose of EMF (10 mL: 106 spores∙mL-1) is recommended on P. arizonica
