ectomycorrhizas in some roots and penetrate intracellularly in others giving
rise to a typical DSE microsclerotia. A similar result was described by
Fernández-Miranda (2014) in Betula celtiberica and Salix atrocinerea, in this
case due to the action of the fungus Heliotial sp. or Cadophora finlandica,
respectively. But, can we consider DSE as mycorrhizas?
Figure 2. Maximum likelihood (ML) consensus tree derived from the ITS data set. On
each branch, the percentages (%) of 10,000 bootstrapping replicates supported by ML
are shown and the Bayesian PPs. The sequence of our isolation is represented in bold.
The tree was rooted using a sequence from Bulgaria inquinans. The scale shows the
expected number of changes per nucleotide. Only Bayesian posterior probability
values above 50% are indicated.
