Abstract

Ectomycorrhizal symbionts of silver fir have been in Slovenia rarely analyzed and identified, thereby little is known about their diversity and distribution across Slovenia. The aim of this study was to identify ectomycorrhizal fungal symbionts of silver fir in silver fir natural distribution area in Slovenia. Ectomycorrhizal fungi were identified based on morphological and anatomical descriptions and by ITS DNA barcoding. Altogether we identified 86 different ectomycorrhizal symbionts of silver fir, many of them were in symbiosis with silver fir, in our study identified for the first-time. The most abundant ECM fungal taxa were assigned to Russula, Tomentella and Lactarius genus. 

 

Izvleček

Ektomikorizni simbionti navadne jelke v Sloveniji, so do sedaj bili le redko predmet raziskav, zato je poznavanje njihove pestrosti in razširjenosti v Sloveniji pomanjkljivo. Namen raziskave je bil identificirati glivne vrste, ki tvorijo ektomikorizno simbiozo z navadno jelko na naravnem območju razširjenosti navadne jelke v Sloveniji. Ektomikorizne simbionte smo identificirali s pomočjo morfološko-anatomskih značilnosti ter ITS DNK barkod. Skupaj smo identificirali 86 različnih ektomikoriznih glivnih vrst, pri čemer smo veliko vrst v ektomikorizni simbiozi z navadno jelko v naši študiji identificirali prvič. Med številčnejše ektomikorizne glive so se uvrstile glive iz rodov Russula, Tomentella in Lactarius.
