Astraeus odoratus is an edible ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungus found in natural dipterocarp forests. The efficacy of two different inoculum types of this fungus, namely, spore suspension and cultured ...mycelium in inducing ECM formation on pot-cultured seedlings of Dipterocarpus alatus was studied. Both types of inocula increased ECM formation. A positive correlation was found between the ECM rate and seedling growth. Both inoculation methods could be used to produce ECM seedlings of D. alatus. Astraeus odoratus merupakan kulat ektomikoriza (ECM) yang boleh dimakan dan dijumpai di hutan dipterokarpa asli. Dua jenis inokulum daripada kulat ini iaitu ampaian spora dan miselium yang dikultur dikaji keberkesanannya mengaruh pembentukan ECM dalam anak benih Dipterocarpus alatus yang ditanam di dalam pasu. Kedua-dua jenis inokulum menggalakkan pembentukan ECM. Korelasi positif dicerap antara kadar pembentukan ECM dengan pertumbuhan anak benih. Kedua-dua kaedah penginokulatan boleh digunakan untuk menghasilkan anak benih D. alatus yang mengandungi ECM.
Effects of ectomycorrhizal fungus Astraeus odoratus on Dipterocarpus alatus seedlings. Astraeus odoratus is an edible ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungus found in natural dipterocarp forests. The efficacy ...of two different inoculum types of this fungus, namely, spore suspension and cultured mycelium in inducing ECM formation on pot-cultured seedlings of Dipterocarpus alatus was studied. Both types of inocula increased ECM formation. A positive correlation was found between the ECM rate and seedling growth. Both inoculation methods could be used to produce ECM seedlings of D. alatus. PUBLICATION ABSTRACT
Eighteen species of ectomycorrhizal fungi were collected from natural pine plantation and forests. These isolates were tested for their compatibility of ectomycorrhizas in pine Pinus kesiya. Eleven ...species form the ectomycorrhizas like in pine root after 12 months. These formation improved the soil physical properties by their hyphae around root rhizosphere. After these species were tested for their effectiveness on pine growth, Scleroderma sp., Cenococcum geaphilium, Russula sp., Amanita sp., Pisolithus tinctorius and Astraeus hygrometricus can increase pine growth compared to noninoculated pine respectively.
