Abstract
Isolates from two species of Morchella were tested for ability to form myco rrhizae in pure culture synthesis with Arbutus menziesii, Larix occidentali s, Pinus contorta, Pinus ponderosa, and Pseudotsuga menziesii. Ectomycorrhi zal structures (mantle and Hartig net) formed with the four species of the Pinaceae but not with A. menziesii. Results are compared to previous studie s on morel mycorrhizae and discussed in an ecological context.
