Dominguez Nunez, JA; Gonzalez, RP; Rodriguez Barreal, JA; de Omenaca Gonzalez, JAS. 2008. The effect of Tuber melanosporum Vitt. mycorrhization on growth, nutrition, and water relations of Quercus petraea Liebl., Quercus faginea Lamk., and Pinus halepensis Mill. seedlings. NEW FORESTS. 35(2):159-171. Address: Dominguez Nunez, JA, Univ Politecn Madrid, UD Patol Forestal, Dpto Silvopascicultura ETS Ingn Montes, Av Ciudad Univ S-N, E-28040 Madrid, Spain
Mycorrhizal and nonmycorrhizal Quercus faginea Lamk., Quercus petraea Liebl., and Pinus halepensis Mill. one-year-old seedlings inoculated with Tuber melanosporum Vitt. have been analyzed with the purpose of studying the influence of mycorrhization on their growth, water relations, and mineral nutrition. The mycorrhization improved Q. petraea and P. halepensis seedling growth. In addition, the mycorrhization created an elastic adjustment in P. halepensis, although it did not cause any osmotic adjustment. Additionally, the mycorrhization increased phosphorus uptake in Q. faginea and P. halepensis, content of all nutrients in P. halepensis, and N content in Q. petraea.
