Abstract
The production of ethylene by six mycorrhizal fungi of pine (Pinus syl vestris L.) grown in media with and without methionine at temperatures of 20-degrees-C and 26-degrees-C and at pH 4.0, 6.0 or 7.0 was studie d. The fungi produced more ethylene at 26-degrees-C than at 20-degrees -C, and more ethylene in media containing methionine than in media wit hout this precursor. The fungi studied synthesized the highest amounts of ethylene at 26-degrees-C and pH 6.0.
