Abstract

Pinus sylvestris seedlings, grown in a vertical petri dish system, were inoculated with five different mycorrhizal fungi. Half of the root system in the petri dish was subjected to periodic flooding, and mycorrhizal colonization was studied. Thelephora terrestris, Laccaria laccata, and Hebeloma crustuliniforme were not sensitive to flooding, whereas Suillus flavidus and S. bovinus were highly sensitive. The latter failed to colonize the root even when flooded for only 2 min per day four times a week.
