abstract = {Ericoid mycorrhizal fungi (ErMF) enhance nutrient uptake in
highbush blueberry (Vaccinium sp.); however, it is unclear
whether inoculating plants with ErMF is actually beneficial.
A 40-day rhizotron trial evaluated the effects of two ErMF
isolates (Hyaloscypha hepaticicola and Oidiodendron maius),
individually and combined, on growth and root development
of the ‘Duke’ and ‘Legacy’ varieties of highbush
blueberry, Vaccinium corymbosum s. l. Fungal inoculation
increased leaf nitrogen concentration in the ‘Duke’
cultivar plants; a decrease in root biomass was also
recorded for the ‘Legacy’ cultivar plants compared to
the uninoculated plants. The total root length in the
‘Duke’ cultivar was lower with O. maius or combined
inoculum, and leaf potassium concentration in the
‘Legacy’ cultivar decreased with H. hepaticicola or
combined inoculum. These findings suggest no short-term
benefits of ErMF inoculation for highbush blueberry under
the tested conditions. Further research is needed to
evaluate potential long-term effects and optimize
inoculation strategies.},
