Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Betula apoiensis is an endangered tree that only inhabits Mt. Apoi in Hokkaido. In this study, in order to clarify the ectomycorrhizal fungi (EMF) that infect B. apoiensis, the species composition of EMF on soil spore banks and mature trees in the B. apoiensis stand was investigated. As a result, the EMF of mature trees of B. apoiensis were frequently detected at Cortinariaceae, Tuberaceae, and Boletaceae. On the other hand, the number of species and frequency of EMF on the soil spore banks are extremely low. Therefore, these results suggested that the regeneration of B. apoiensis not depend on soil spore banks but depend on mycelial networks at mature tree.
