Other claims from this paper (10)
- Observation No evidence of ectomycorrhizal colonization was found in Taxus contorta.
- Observation Paris-type arbuscular mycorrhizal associations were observed in Taxus contorta, with colonization from 45.54 ± 4.25% to 67.31 ± 5.71%.
- Observation 29 AMF species from 10 genera were identified in the rhizosphere soil of Taxus contorta.
- Observation Rhizoglomus intraradices and Glomus microcarpum were the dominant AMF taxa.
- Observation 18S rRNA V4 metabarcoding identified 13 OTUs of AM fungi within T. contorta roots.
- Observation Three AM fungal genera, Paraglomus, Glomus and Acaulospora, were identified in the roots.
- Observation Mycorrhizal colonization of T. contorta peaked during the active growth season.
- Observation AMF spore diversity was higher in the dormant season.
- Association Colonization and AMF diversity were influenced by altitude, vegetation and soil properties.
- Recommendation The dominance of specific AMF taxa suggests their potential use as effective inoculants in nursery propagation of T. contorta.
