Abstract

Three subtypes of mycorrhizas, sensu Dominik (1955), were found on roots of Alnus viridis growing in New Zealand. Roots with 60% of their rootlets mycorrhizal absorbed phosphate five times as rapidly as non‐mycorrhizal roots. Root nodules appear unable to absorb labelled phosphorus actively from externally supplied solution. Copyright © 1969, Wiley Blackwell. All rights reserved
