Other claims from this paper (4)
- Intervention effect Slow-release fertilizer suppressed mycorrhizal formation by Rhizopogon species on Douglas-fir.
- Intervention effect Height growth of Douglas-fir seedlings increased significantly under low fertility at all basidiospore rates of R. colossus.
- Intervention effect Height growth of Douglas-fir seedlings increased significantly under low fertility at the three lowest basidiospore rates of R. vinicolor.
- Intervention effect The high fertility regime produced plantable Douglas-fir seedlings with abundant ectomycorrhizae of R. colossus and R. vinicolor.
