Abstract

Pisolithus linctorius and Lacearía laceóla were grown in 2 liter masón jars and
nursery plots previously filled with a mixture of eroded soil and sand were inoculated
with 2 jars of each symbiont test. Pinus seedlings were grown into these plots
for 30 wecks, removed frora the soil and growth measurcd. Only 3 of the 8 pine
species lested showed under these adverse conditions a good response to mycorrhizal
inoculation: P. pseudostrobus had a growth increase of 144°/o and 82°/o when
inoculated with the tested fungí. P. radiata showed a growth increase of 79°/o and
59°/o with same symbionts inoculation and P. teocote had a growth increase of
169°/o only when inoculaled with P. tinctorius.
