Genetic variations and in vitro root-colonizing ability for an ericaceous host in Sarcoleotia globosa (Geoglossomycetes).

Abstract excerpt

We discovered that Sarcoleotia globosa (Geoglossomycetes) fruited on the soil of ornamental Erica pot cultures, and its ascospores can germinate on plain agar. These findings prompted us to collect isolates from horticultural and natural environments in Japan and analyze their phylogeny and root colonizing ability. Pure cultures were successfully obtained from ascospores and surface-sterilized ericaceous roots....
