ABSTRACT
Scots pine sawdust, composted bark or coarse, post-harvest woody debris from conifers had been spread over the surface of
barren forest soil before planting with Scots pine. The effects of the Scots pine sawdust, composted bark or coarse, post-harvest woody
debris from conifers on the abundance and diversity of culturable fungi were investigated. The amendments were aimed at increasing
the soil suppressiveness to
Armillaria
and
Heterobasidion.
The classical soil-dilution method was chosen for qualitative and quantitative
analyses of fungal communities in soils because of its proven reliability and consistency. The soil was inhabited by saprotrophic fungi
from Ascomycota and Zygomycota, including species known to be potential antagonists of
Armillaria
or
H. annosum
(i.e.
Clonostachys
+ Trichoderma
spp.,
Penicillium commune,
P. daleae,
P. janczewskii) or stimulants of
Armillaria
(i.e.
Pseudogymnoascus roseus,
Trichocladium
opacum). Eleven years after treatment, the abundance and diversity of fungi, the abundance of
P. commune, and locally the abundance
of
P. janczewskii
increased, while
Clonostachys + Trichoderma
spp., and locally,
P. daleae
and
T. opacum
decreased. Amending the barren
soil with organic matter does not guarantee effective, long-term suppressiveness of the sandy loam soil to
Armillaria
and
Heterobasidion.
Increased abundance of entomopathogenic and nematophagous species, 11 years after treatment, does suggest the long-term
possibility of insect or nematode control in soil.
