N2  - Seedling growth and ectomycorrhizal colonization of Pinus radiata and P. patula seedlings growing in nursery containers with two application rates of spores of 3 different ectomycorrhizal fungi,Helvella lacunosa, Russula brevipes and Lycoperdon perlatum, was evaluated at 5 and 12 months . At 5 months of growth P. patula was less susceptible than P. radiata to colonization by fungi and percentaage of ectomycorrhizal feeder roots was lower in all treatments . Growth response (either volume or top dry weight)to treatments was different among pines species . A significant seedling growth response was observed after 5 months in both pine species with the double rate of spores of either H. lacunosa or L. perlatum ; this response was sustained in P. patula at 12 months with Helvella only. P. radiata seedlings inoculated with the double rate of spores of R . brevipes showed a significant growth response at 12 months
