Dark septate endophyte and arbuscular mycorrhizal status of vegetation colonizing a bottomland hardwood forest after a 100 year flood

摘要: Levels of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) colonization and dark septate endophyte (DSE) were assessed in the vegetation recolonizing a remnant bottomland hardwood forest north central Texas following 100 year flood. Thirty seven plant species representing 21 dicotyledonous 2 montocotyledonous families established floodwater recession. AM and/or DSE found all species. was 31 out 37 including both monocotyledonous (Poaceae Cyperaceae) 17 (Acanthaceae, Asteraceae, Boraginaceae, Cucurbitaceae, Euphorbiaceae, Lamiaceae, Loganiaceae, Lythraceae, Malvaceae, Onagraceae, Pedaliaceae, Ranunculaceae, Sapindaceae, Scrophulariaceae, Solanaceae, Verbanaceae Violaceae). 15 (Amaranthaceae, Brassicaceae, Phytolaccaceae, Polygonaceae, Scrophulariaceae There no detectable differences or levels among wetland indicator groups (p > 0.05). negatively correlated with vesicular hyphal for obligate other significant relationships between detected. Spearman rank order correlation coefficients did not differ significantly indicatory category any level colonization.
