Abstract

Summary The effect of soil temperature on mycorrhizal development and growth of Pinus patula seedlings was investigated. The temperature range used was 20, 25, 30 and 35°C. The temperatures were maintained by using “Wisconsin” waterbaths housed in a greenhouse. The results show that mycorrhizal development is stimulated by high temperatures but that this does not result in a concomitant increase in growth, chiefly due to the effect of high temperature on the uptake of nutrients by the seedlings.

Claim · model-written summary

The lack of growth increase at high soil temperature is attributed to its effect on nutrient uptake by Pinus patula seedlings.
