The Role of V-Strategist Endophytes in Stimulating the Formation of Mycorrhizal Interactions and Soil Regeneration

Abstract

Endophyte, new species of yeast fungus, which belongs to the genera Debariomycetaceae Vitasergia svidasoma Oliferchuk PRJNA807518 was isolated from the fruiting body of Tuber melanosporum VS1223 (IMB F-100106). The preparation Mykovital was created on its basis. The possibility of regulation of soil fertility was established through the influence on the “bacteria-fungus-plant” system by stimulation of mycorrhizal formation. By the introduction of seedlings and saplings of trees and shrubs of endophyte species in rhysosphere applying the preparation Mykovital at the different types of devastated soils. Environmental efficiency of biological recultivation of devastated lands is determined during the cultivation of forest crops, which is proved by their biological sustainability and morphological indicators. The research shows the possibility to systematize microorganisms according to the strategies of their survival in ecosystems in such a way, that besides К, r, and L strategists it is necessary to introduce another notion about another group of microorganisms in ecology and soil microbiology—endophytes which are proposed to be named as V-strategies. These are fungi endophytes that are capable to restore and stimulate mycorrhizal symbiosis in the “bacteria-fungus-plant” system and function as provision of “heterotrophic” nutrition of plants on the Earth. Based on the research, a conceptual model of recultivation of devastated lands was proposed and priority of soil ecosystem support services was established.
