Experiments

Experiment 169 - Causes of change in ectomycorrhizal communities

This experiment is designed to examine whether oak savanna supports a unique community of ectomycorrhizal fungi, a higher diversity of ectomycorrhizal fungi or a greater proportional abundance of ascomycete fungi compared with adjacent areas where the absence of fire has resulted in oak savanna conversion to oak forest.
