Amélioration de l’établissement des plantes dans les bleuets commerciaux à l’aide de champignons symbiotiques

Abstract There is a need to develop a greater understanding of factors affecting the speed and proficiency of blueberry plant establishment and thereafter maintenance of yield. Bushes do not become fully productive until they are between five and seven years old requiring a significant financial layout from growers before any expected return to profit. A significant knowledge gap exists regarding the inter- relationship between mycorrhizal fungi and plant establishment of naturally occurring and commercially grown Vaccinium species. This project aims to identify species- specific fungal communities to assess their ability to colonise a range of highbush blueberry cultivars and their affect on establishment and plant productivity. This project is the first step in developing a commercial product based on symbiotic fungal isolates for the propagation industry and growers, which would enhance establishment and growth of blueberry plants.
