Abstract/Contents:"In four experiments, Lolium perenne was grown in pots of soil known to be deficient in nitrogen and phosphorus. Weekly additions of soluble nutrients provided treatments of markedly differing nitrogen and phosphorus supply, which significantly affected plant growth. Fungal abundance on the root surface, expressed as length of mycelium per unit root surface area, was determined by direct observation. It was increased, usually several-fold, when either nitrogen or phosphorus was omitted from the nutrient supply, and showed a close negative relation to plant weight. When expressed as mycelium weight/plant weight the increase was tenfold or more. In a sand culture experiment, in which the plants were inoculated with a single saprophytic fungus species, the results showed some similarities to the soil experiments, but were inconclusive. Possible mechanisms for the changes in fungal abundance are discussed."
