Research Abstract |
Coastal pine forests in Japan are declining by pine nematode disease and eradicated by a recent Tohoku earthquake needing effective planting techniques to rehabilitate the forests. Japanese black pine associate with ectomycorrhizal fungi that can facilitate nutrient water uptake and alleviate soil salinity. I conducted the present research to clarify ectomycorrhizal community structures genetic characterization of a dominant fungal species and the response of the species against salinity. Among 8 stands examined, Cenococcum geophilum was the most dominant species irrespective of the stands.Variations in the genetic diversities and the resistance to NaCl were observed among isolates of the species.
