morphological and molecular analyses in scleroderma species associated with some caesalpinioid legumes, dipterocarpaceae and phyllanthaceae trees in southern burkina faso.	a combination of morphotypes, polymerase chain reaction/restriction fragment length polymorphism (pcr/rflp) analyses and internal transcribed spacer (its) sequencing was used to investigate scleroderma species that were collected from woodlands in burkina faso. we harvested 52 specimens from 20 sites during rainy seasons between 1997 and 2000. according to their morphological features, these specimens were initially characterised, and we then identified six species of scleroderma. two of the spe ...	2009	19705166
litter-forager termite mounds enhance the ectomycorrhizal symbiosis between acacia holosericea a. cunn. ex g. don and scleroderma dictyosporum isolates.	the hypothesis of the present study was that the termite mounds of macrotermes subhyalinus (ms) (a litter-forager termite) were inhabited by a specific microflora that could enhance with the ectomycorrhizal fungal development. we tested the effect of this feeding group mound material on (i) the ectomycorrhization symbiosis between acacia holosericea (an australian acacia introduced in the sahelian areas) and two ectomycorrhizal fungal isolates of scleroderma dictyosporum (ir408 and ir412) in gre ...	2006	16629758
contrasting responses to ectomycorrhizal inoculation in seedlings of six tropical african tree species.	five caesalpinioid legumes, afzelia africana, afzelia bella, anthonotha macrophylla, cryptosepalum tetraphylum and paramacrolobium coeruleum, and one euphorbiaceae species, uapaca somon, with a considerable range in seed sizes, exhibited different responses to inoculation by four species of ectomycorrhizal (ecm) fungi, scleroderma dictyosporum, s. verrucosum, pisolithus sp. and one thelephoroid sp. in greenhouse conditions. thelephoroid sp. efficiently colonized seedlings of all of the five caes ...	2005	16007470
