Ectomycorrhizae, phosphatase, nitrate reductaseAbstract
Extracellular enzyme production by ectomycorrhizae is able to movilize an important soil fraction. We report enzyme activities related with nitrogen and phosphorus movi I ization in four ectomycorriza-forming fungi: Suillus luteus (L.: Fr.) F. Gray, Xerocomus badius (Fr.:Fr.) Gilbert, Boletus pinicola (Vitt.) Venturi andPisolithus tinctorius (Pers.) Coker & Couch We examine the potential value of enzyme activity as a criterion for selecting inoculant fungi. High values are considered as profitable for inoculants under nursery conditions.
