Growth Stimulating Effects
of Ectomycorrhizal Fungi
An illustration of typical glasshouse
results showing the difference in the growth attained in
combinations of two ectomycorrhizal fungi with two types of
eucalypts. The plants in the two pots on the left received no
inoculation of ectomycorrhizal fungi. The differences in growth
in seedlings in the four pots on the right may indicate the
requirement for matching of particular types of ectomyorrhizal
fungi with specific eucalypts. Photo credit: CSIRO Division of
