Plants of Calamagrostis villosa were cultivated in nutrient solution alone or in association with a vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal (VAM) fungus Glomus etunicatum. They were supplied with two levels of inorganic phosphate (Pi; 0.1 or 1 mM) and with or without organic phosphate (dinatriumphenylphosphate, Po; 1 mM). Depression of growth and enhancement of root respiration of mycorrhizal plants in comparison with non-mycorrhizal plants were observed after 12 weeks of cultivation in a growth cabinet. Root colonization was not influenced by the higher phosphorus availability in contrast to the extraradical mycelium (ERM). The lengths of ERM hyphae both attached to the root surface and in the substrate were decreased substantially by higher phosphorus supply, irrespectively of its form.

Keywords: dehydrogenase activity; extraradical mycelium; Glomus etunicatum; growth depression; root colonization
