Ectomycorrhizal response to environmental perturbation

1995

Afs, T. (Sheffield Univ. (United Kingdom). Animal and Plant Sciences Dept.)

The use of ectomycorrhizal fungi as possible indicators of ecosystem response to disturbance is discussed with emphasis on the analysis of individual species by direct observation of their mycorrhizas. Some examples of such studies are given. The possible role of fungal diversity and differential tolerance by individual species to pollutants are also discussed in relation to observed changes within ectomycorrhizal fungal communities.
