This project evaluates the effects of various compounds on the success of fungal infections in plant roots. Research efforts are intended: to evaluate the effectiveness of phenolase in metabolizing the most and least toxic phenolic compounds studied; to determine the types and quantities of phenolic compounds produced by pine seedlings inoculated with /ital Pisolithus tinctorius/ and receiving boron fertilization; to determine the effects of hydroxylation of phenolic compounds on the growth of /ital Pisolithus tinctorius/, a known ectomycorrhizal fungus, grown in pure culture; and to determine the effect of phenolic glycosides on the growth of /ital Pisolithus tinctorius/, grown in pure culture.
