Abstract
Container-grown Pinus strobus seedlings inoculated with a wild strain of the ectomycorrhizal fungus Laccaria bicolor , were raised under the same controlled growth conditions for 14 wk after which conditions were varied. Lowering the temperature from 24/18 °C (day/night) to 18/12° inhibited the fruiting of L. bicolor associated with P. strobus . A short photoperiod as well as a low level of nitrogen and phosphorus fertilization stimulated basidiome development. Less fruiting of L. bicolor occurred at 24/18° with the host plants Picea glauca or Pinus taeda . However some basidiomes did form at 18/12° with P. glauca and P. taeda contrary to P. strobus .
