Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to clarify the interaction mechanism of bacteria-ectomycorrhizal fungi-tree associated with the vegetation succession by examining the community structure and diversity of bacteria present in the ectomycorrhizsophere. In a primary successional volcanic desert, we analyzed the effect of successional phase on the community structure of ectomycorrhizosphere bacteria associated with Salix reinii, pioneer dwarf willow. Species composition of ectomycorhizosphere bacteria are related with ECM fungus associated with the successional phase of Salix reinii. It was inferred species compositionof ectomycorhizosphere bacteria along with the transition of vegetational succession.
