    Notes: Abstract  The ability of restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis of the rDNA internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region to discriminate 10 co-occurring Cortinarius and Dermocybe species at a southeastern Australian sclerophyll forest site was assessed. Using the basidiomycete-specific primers ITS1F and ITS4B, some taxa were separated on the basis of individual RFLP patterns derived using the restriction endonucleases Hae III or Hinf I. Combined data from both endonucleases were, however, required to separate all taxa [Dermocybe austro-veneta Clel. (Moser & Horak), C. rotundisporus Clel. & Cheel, C. archeri Berk., C. sinapicolor Clel., C. violaceus (L.: Fr.) S.F.Gray, C. radicatus Clel. and four morphologically-distinct, but unidentified Cortinarius spp.]. ITS sequence comparisons confirmed that D. austro-veneta belongs in Dermocybe, that C. rotundisporus is correctly placed in subgenus Phlegmacium, and suggest that Australian C. violaceus collections are not conspecific with northern hemisphere C. violaceus.

    Notes: Abstract  Pisolithus tinctorius (Pers.) Coker and Couch [Syn. = P. arhizus (Scop.: Pers.) Rauschert] (Pt) is a widespread ectomycorrhizal basidiomycete forming mycorrhizas with a variety of hosts. Developmental and functional aspects of the symbiosis are well documented and thus Pt has been adopted as a model organism for investigations of the molecular basis of ectomycorrhizal interactions. In this review of the current state of knowledge of interactions between Pt and its hosts we demonstrate that Pt displays much intraspecific heterogeneity of host specificity, physiology and the benefits the fungus can impart upon the host plant. It is not clear at present how far such heterogeneity reflects systematic segregation within Pt.

    Notes: Abstract  The ability of four ericoid mycorrhizal endophytes isolated from roots of Woollsia pungens (Cav.) F. Muell. (Epacridaceae) to utilise organic forms of nitrogen and phosphorus during growth in axenic culture was assessed. All isolates were able to utilise glutamine, arginine and bovine serum albumin (BSA), along with NH4 + or NO3 –, in most cases yielding at least as much biomass as the ericoid mycorrhizal endophyte Hymenoscyphus ericae (Read) Korf & Kernan. All isolated endophytes were able to utilise BSA, arginine and glutamine as sole sources of N and C. With the exception of a single isolate (C40), which showed little growth on glutamine, biomass yields on glutamine as the sole N and C source was significantly greater for all isolates than on either of the other two organic N sources. Two isolates from W. pungens (C40 and A43) utilised DNA and sodium inositol hexaphosphate as sole P sources, in each case yielding significantly more biomass than H. ericae. The results suggest that mycorrhizal endophytes from epacrid plant hosts and those from ericaceous hosts have similar abilities to utilise organic forms of N and P.
