- Abstract
Tricholoma matsutake isolates IFO6933 and IFO30604 have been maintained on slants for 46 and 26 years, respectively, and widely used for studies of matsutake in vitro without any contact with potential host plants. In the present study, we demonstrate that both isolates are able to form a typical ectomycorrhiza in association with Pinus densiflora. The result shows that T. matsutake is hardly attenuated in its symbiotic potential and that the fungal cultures maintained for years are useful in further analysis in vitro.
