ABSTRACT

If in the site of planting stock production no natural mycorrhization of seedlings can be expected, the controlled mycorrhization of seedlings should be introduced using ectomycorrhizal fungi selected in laboratories. Controlled mycorrhization is, however, associated with a precise dosage and introduction of inoculum of a mycorrhizal fungus to the substratum. Mechanization of this treatment may considerably shorten the whole technological process, and it may have a positive effect on its success. Using a single-seed sowing about 35% of seed material was saved.

Key words: biopreparation, controlled mycorrhization, single-seed sowing, grown in frames.
