New Perspectives on the Determination of Phosphatase Activity in Ectomycorrhizae of Nothofagus Obliqua Forests in Southern Chile

Abstract: We present a method to localise and quantify surfacebound phosphatase activity (SBPA) in mycorrhizal fungi and mycorrhizae of Nothofagus obliqua (Mirb.) Oerst., using image processed confocal fluorescent microscopy. ELF-97 is a hydrophilic substrate which turns into a strongly fluorescent precipitate upon activation by phosphomonoesterases. In fungal mycelium, this technique has recently been approved by comparison with a standard method (p-nitrophenyl-phosphate). The microscopic technique based on ELF-97 reve… Show more
