Summary
The mycorrhizae on seedlings of Pinus mugo Turra were superseded by other types after seedlings were transplanted from a nursery to a subalpine pine soil. The mycorrhizae formed by a single symbiont, Hebeloma mesophaeum (Pers. ex Fr.) Quel, were more efficient in terms of seedling nutrition than mycorrhizae formed by the natural fungus population from a native site. This led to significant differences in growth of needles, and their rates of photosynthesis and transpiration. re]19721213
