Abstract
Formosan rhododendron (Rhododendron formosanum Hemsl.) is an endemic species of Erica-les in Taiwan. The Rf28 fungal strain was isolated from the roots of Formosan rhododendron and identified as an endophytic species of Phialocephala based on its morphological characteristics. This identification was further supported by a DNA sequence analysis. This species is a new addition to the fungal flora of Taiwan. In ericoid-mycorrhizal synthesis, Rf28-inoculated Formosan rhododendron seedlings exhibited vigorous growth, and an examination of the root ultrastructure revealed the occurrence of hyphal complexes and hyphal coils in cortical cells. These results demonstrated that Formosan rhododendron can form ericoid mycorrhiza in vitro with Phialocephala spp.
期刊介绍：
The Taiwan Journal of Forest Science is an academic publication that welcomes contributions from around the world. The journal covers all aspects of forest research, both basic and applied, including Forest Biology and Ecology (tree breeding, silviculture, soils, etc.), Forest Management (watershed management, forest pests and diseases, forest fire, wildlife, recreation, etc.), Biotechnology, and Wood Science. Manuscripts acceptable to the journal include (1) research papers, (2) research notes, (3) review articles, and (4) monographs. A research note differs from a research paper in its scope which is less-comprehensive, yet it contains important information. In other words, a research note offers an innovative perspective or new discovery which is worthy of early disclosure.
