The significance of host-fungus combinations in ectomycorrhizal symbioses for the chemical quality of willow foliage

Abstract: The majority of plants interacts with mycorrhizal fungi, which predominantly provide mutual benefits, but also costs. We tested the hypothesis that specific combinations of host plants (four commercial varieties of Salix spp.) and ectomycorrhizal partners (species of Laccaria, Paxillus, Tricholoma and Hebeloma) differ in their effects on the host foliar chemistry. Twenty specific host -mycorrhiza combinations were pot-grown outdoors under low-N conditions. Foliar concentrations of total phenolics and salicylic… Show more

“…This might be affected by the different litter quality of these genotypes, since the litter quality affects mycorrhizal communities ( Lambers et al, 1998 ). In a pot experiment, leaves of ‘Loden’ revealed higher phenolic concentrations in the later growth than ‘Tora’ under the same environmental conditions ( Baum et al, 2009b ). Leaf litter with higher phenolic concentrations was described to support EM formation, whereas low phenolic concentrations were found to promote AM colonization of the host plants ( Lambers et al, 1998 ).…”

“…2009). Successional increases in fungal abundance, as well as shifts in the fungal community among fungal species, are both likely to mediate changes in the expression of plant defences (Baum et al. 2009), as well as tolerance to herbivory (Bennett & Bever 2007; Garrido et al.…”

“…Symbiotic associations between tree roots and ECM fungi play important roles in promoting the growth of these plants, and this promotion can be affected by variation in the strains of ECM fungi [46] and their interactions between biotic and abiotic factors [47]. ECM can aid the recovery of degraded soil both through the direct absorption of variable pollutants [17, 19] and indirect protection from rehabilitated vegetation [41].…”
