| Research Abstract |
Most tree species depend on ectomycorrhizal fungi for soil nutrients. If we were able to select and breed effective ectomycorrhizal fungal strains, they could promote the growth and establishment of trees in various environments. In this study, we conducted screening experiments to know which fungi could effectively promote tree growth in problematic soils (e.g. poor nutrients and high salinity). We also made some new findings on gene flow and phylogenetic evolution of some ectomycorrhizal fungal groups.
