“…Mean percent colonization was signi®cantly greater in sweet corn grown in subsoils previously cropped to wheat (52%) than fallowed (40%) at the 0.001 level. This observation supports other research reporting that fallowing leads to declines in AM colonization (28,29,30,31,33). However, none of these reports involved subsoils as the growth medium nor measured colonization over the growing season.…”

Previous studies reported manure application to eroded Portneuf silt loam soil (Coarse-silty, mixed, superactive, Durinodic Xeric Haplocalcid) improved dry bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L., cv. Viva) yield to levels of topsoil. These yield increases only correlated with whole-plant zinc (Zn) concentration and soil organic matter. This might be related to enhanced arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) colonization stimulated by manure application. A greenhouse study with dry bean suggested a relationship between manure application, increased AM colonization, and whole-plant Zn uptake, while ®eld studies with wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and sweet corn (Zea mays L.) did not. To clarify the apparent contradiction of manure application on AM relationships, the JOURNAL OF PLANT NUTRITION, 24(6), 921±943 (2001) present ®eld study with dry bean and sweet corn was conducted in subsoils on the same experimental site established in 1991 and used in previous studies. The existing rotation also allowed the study of the effects of previously fallowed versus wheat cropped subsoils on yield, AM colonization and nutrition of dry bean and sweet corn. Average mycorrhizal root colonization in dry bean was greater on unamended than on manure-amended soils but was not related to increases in yield, Zn concentration, or Zn uptake. Average colonization of sweet corn roots was generally greater in unamended than manure-amended soils, but yields were greater in manure-amended soils. Colonization of sweet corn roots measured over time was consistently greater in subsoils previously cropped to wheat than fallowed, but yields were similar. Previous wheat-cropping resulted in leveling off of colonization beginning 7 July (second sampling) in dry bean, while previous fallow resulted in continuously increasing colonization throughout the ®ve sampling periods. Bean yields were greater on subsoils previously cropped than fallowed; thus yields were generally not related to AM colonization. Results of our study con®rm other ®eld results where AM colonization was greater in unamended than manure-amended soils and in cropped than in fallowed soils. Any yield increases observed were not closely related to AM colonization.

“…Fallowing reportedly leads to declines in AM colonization and to plant nutrient de®ciencies (28,29,30,31,32,33). Kabir et al (34) found that AM ef®ciency and plant content of P and Zn decreased with increasing length of fallow.…”

“…The lowest spore densities were found in samples taken from fallow soils (Table 4). Other researchers found that AMF colonization and AMF spores density declined as a result of fallow (Black & Tinker, 1979;Kucey & Paul, 1983). Fallow was reported to decrease the organic matter content and microbial activities in general (Black & Tinker, 1979).…”

“…Canadian surveys for mycorrhizal fungi diversity have been done on different ecosystems and habitats such as orchard fields (Dalpé et al1986;Traquair and Berch 1988), maple forests (Moutoglis and Widden 1996;Coughlan et al 2000), coniferous (Egger and Paden 1986;Hutchinson 1992;Bradbury et al 1998;Kernaghan and Currah 1998;Durall et al 1999;Kranabetter et al 1999) and deciduous Laurentian forests (Villeneuve et al 1989), sand dunes (Dalpé 1989;Dalpé and Mitrow 1993;Little and Maun 1996), urban conifer trees (Danielson and Pruden 1989), peat land (Hambleton et al 1999), and old acid meadows (Hamel et al 1994(Hamel et al , 1996. Fungal diversity was investigated in several indigenous and cultivated plants such as alfalfa (Kucey and Diab 1984), barley Tewari 1986, 1993), beans (Kucey and Paul 1983;Kucey et al 1985), Cistaceae (Malloch and Thorn 1985), Ericaceae (Hambleton and Currah 1997; Berch et al 2001) such as blueberry (Couture et al 1983) and salal (Xiao and Berch 1992, Epacridaceae (McLean et al 1999) lentils (Talukdar and Germida 1993), orchids (Currah et al 1988(Currah et al , 1990, lodgepole pine (Bradbury 1998;Bradbury et al 1998), strawberry (Muamba et al 2002), wheat (CadeMenun et al 1991;Takukdar and Germida 1993) 1990; Kohn and Stasovski 1990;Gardes and Dahlberg 1996) and alpine tundra (Stoyke and Currah 1991), the boreal forest …”

Dalpé, Y. 2003. Mycorrhizal fungi biodiversity in Canadian soils. Can. J. Soil Sci. 83: 321-330. The term "mycorrhiza" refers to the mutualistic symbiosis between fungi and the roots of a vast majority of vascular plants, distributed over almost any ecosystem. The fungal symbionts, primarily recognized for their beneficial impact on plant growth and plant protection, are integral components of soil ecosystems and as such, play an active role in improving plant productivity and diversity, soil microflora and microfauna diversity, and soil quality. Classified among major groups of true fungi, the study of their biodiversity and distribution has been explored for only a few decades. Major emphasis was first put on the mycorrhizal status of plants, on the evaluation of their benefits to plant growth, on their geographic distribution and soil inventories, and more recently on their relationship to plant diversity and productivity. In the 1950s, Canadian scientists were among world pioneers in the field of mycorrhizae research and they continue to be recognized by the international scientific community. Studies dealing with soil biodiversity of mycorrhizal fungi, including arbuscular, ecto-, ectendo-, ericoid-and orchid mycorrhizae, performed by Canadian researchers are presented here together with strategies and perspectives for a better exploitation of mycorrhizal fungal diversity in ecosystems. Dalpé, Y. 2003. Diversité des champignons mycorhiziens dans les sols Canadiens. Can. J. Soil Sci. 83: 321-330. Les champignons mycorhiziens, dont les bénéfices sur la croissance et la protection des plantes sont largement reconnus constituent un élément important de l'écosystème des sols et y jouent un rôle majeur sur la diversité de la microflore, la microfaune, la végé-tation et par conséquent dans la conservation des sols et des écosystèmes. Dans cette optique, la diversité taxonomique des champignons mycorhiziens et leur rôle bio-fertilisant et bio-protecteur sont ici présentés avec comme toile de fond les liens étroits qu'ils entretiennent avec la communauté végétale et leur rôle clé sur la durabilité des écosystèmes agricoles et forestiers. Cette revue décrit les liens étroits entre champignons mycorhiziens et bactéries des sols, parasites fongiques et microfaune ainsi que leurs activitiés sur l'aggrégation des sols, le contrôle biologique contre les maladies et l'impact des pratiques agricoles et forestières sur leur distribution, leur abondance et leur diversité. Cette revue est basée principalement sur les recherches canadiennes dans ce domaine et discute des stratégies et perspectives futures à envisager pour une exploitation durable de la diversité des mycorhizes.
