Abstract:
By studying mycorrhizal symbiosis, another important step is made in knowing the relationship between plants and soil microflora. Benefits that these symbiosis bring to plants and ecosystem are semnificative for the interpretation of physiological factors, like: extending the volume of soil accessible to plants, acquiring nutrient forms that would not normally be available to plants; for the ecosystem an important role is to soil structure and mechanical aggregation. In the pasture that we studied in the Apuseni Mountains we found as dominant species Carex hirta, percent in the floristic composition is 35-40%, and that is the primary reason for studying this plant. The study area is positioned at 2 meters far from the forest and the soil is caracterized by a big humidity – the subteran water is at a high level. To identify the influence of the forest, of the humidity and the relation with other plants in the pasture, first step was to find that plants of Carex hirta is colonized by mycorrhizal symbiosis. We harvest the plants with root from a 15 to 20 cm deep and we colored teh roots with a solution of ink with vinegar. The proposed method for diagnosis of mycorrhizal colonization on Carex hirta roots is specific for the area where the studies took place.
