Treeline shift under global change - ectomycorrhizas as a limiting factor?
Original language description
It is assumed that global change will cause a treeline shift . Because competitive abilities and natural regeneration of trees are infl uenced by ectomycorrhizal (ECM) symbiosis and fi ne roots and ECM mycelia play a key role in belowground carbon turnover, we have studied the ECM associations of treeline ecosystems. We aim to fi nd out how resistant and resilient current ECM associations of these ecosystems are and whether the absence of appropriate ECM symbionts could be a limiting factor of an ecosystem shift . We have focused on natural mountain spruce forests and spruce forests on the treeline; dwarf pine stands with scattered spruce trees above the treeline will be studied in years to come. Ectomycorrhizas were described by morphological featuresand sequenced to identify fungal species. In the case of taxonomically complicated ECM fungal groups, sequences from microscopically identifi ed sporocarps were used for the identifi cation of ectomycorrhizas. A disproportion between ECM
