Abstract
The effect of Paxillus involutus, Laccaria laccata, Suillus luteus, S. bovinus, Hebeloma crustuliniforme and a strain of the ectendomycorrhizal fungus Mrg X (Ascomycotina) on the content of phenolic compounds: ortho-diphenols and total soluble phenols in roots of Pinus sylvestris seedlings grown in vitro was investigated. Mycorrhizal fungi varied significantly in the ability to influence the concentration of phenolics in Scots pine roots. Plants inoculated with S. luteus accumulated the lowest amount of the phenolics, whereas the amount of phenolics in pine roots inoculated with L. laccata was the highest.
