Morphological and molecular (polymerase chain reaction – restriction fragment length polymorphism) methods were used to assess ectomycorrhiza (ECM) diversity in naturally regenerating and planted Picea engelmannii Parry ex Engelm. × Picea glauca (Moench) Voss seedlings in two recently clear-cut sites, two clear-cut and broadcast burned sites, and two mature forests (>100 years) in central British Columbia. Based on 24 characterized ECM, burning did not affect overall diversity (Shannon, Simpson, Shannon evenness, and Margalef indices). However, the occurrence and relative abundance of some ECM morphotypes varied significantly. Hebeloma and a Russulaceae type 1 were more abundant and Cenococcum was less abundant in planted seedlings from cut-burned sites compared with those from clear-cut sites. E-strain, MRA, and Amphinema were more abundant in planted seedlings from both cut-burned and clear-cut sites compared with naturally regenerating seedlings from mature sites. ECM diversity of regenerating seedlings was significantly greater in mature forests compared with clear-cut sites and was greater in planted seedlings than naturally regenerating seedlings in clear-cut sites. Molecular analysis of the internal transcribed spacer region of the nuclear-encoded ribosomal RNA gene repeat showed no significant differences among treatments or seedling type. Twenty-two genotypes were identified from eight common morphotypes: Cenococcum (one), Thelephora (two), E-strain, Tuber, Hebeloma, and Russulaceae type 1 (three each), MRA (four), and Amphinema (six). Hebeloma genotypes matched three for Amphinema; genotypes from unidentified lightly colonized tips matched those for E-strain, MRA, and Amphinema-Hebeloma.
