Summary Tabulated information on the colonization of roots of barley, cabbage and dwarf bean by fungi during the first 10 days of root development is given. These data, obtained by isolation and direct observation studies, are discussed in relation to previous observations on the association of fungi with the roots of healthy crop plants. The results indicate that initial root colonization may be by any of a wide range of soil fungi, but that this mixed population rapidly gives way to a stable and typical root-surface mycoflora (dominated by such fungi asFusarium spp.,Cylindrocarpon radicicola, Gliocladium spp., andPenicillium spp.
