Forest trees are colonised by different species of ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi that interact competitively or mutualistically with one another. Most ECM fungi can produce sporocarps. To date, the effects of co-colonising fungal species on sporocarp formation in ECM fungi remain unknown. In this study, we examined host plant growth, mycorrhizal colonisation, and sporocarp formation when roots ofPinus densifloraare colonised byLaccaria japonicaand three other ECM fungal species (Cenococcum geophilum,Pisolithussp., andSuillus luteus). Sporocarp numbers were recorded throughout the experimental period. The biomass, photosynthetic rate, and mycorrhizal colonisation rate of the seedlings were also measured at 45 days, 62 days, and 1 year after seedlings were transplanted. Results indicated thatC.geophilumandS. luteusmay negatively impact mycorrhizal colonisation and sporocarp formation inL. japonica. Sporocarp formation inL. japonicawas positively correlated with conspecific mycorrhizal colonisation but negatively correlated with the biomass of seedlings ofP. densiflora. The co-occurring ECM fungi largely competed withL. japonica, resulting in various effects on mycorrhizal colonisation and sporocarp formation inL. japonica. A variety of mechanisms may be involved in the competitive interactions among the different ECM fungal species, including abilities to more rapidly colonise root tips, acquire soil nutrients, or produce antibiotics. These mechanisms need to be confirmed in further studies.
