Abstract

Ectomycorrhizal fungi in Pinus and poplar stands (Populus and others) were collected in 1981 and 1982. A total of 39 mushrooms representing 15 genera were identified from the pine stand, and the major genera were Amanita, Lactarius, Russula, Laccaria, and Boletus. From the poplar stands 16 mushrooms representing 8 genera were identified and 13 of them were the same found in the pine stand. Amanita, Russula, Laccaria, and Leccinum are the major genera in the poplar stands. A single species of Boletus was found in large number in pine and poplar stands. Lactarius was not observed in the poplar stands, while Leccinum was not found in the pine stand. Cantharellus lutescens which has not been reported in Korea was collected in the pine stand.
