Research interests
The forest decline in the eighties in Southern Germany (Black Forest) was the initial point to start with the investigation of mycorrhizas. After PhD with light- and electronmicroscopic studies of ectomycorrhizas of spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.), I continued with a PEF-project about structures and functions of mycorrhizas in forest ecosystems. With a DFG scholarship I started to identify the ectomycorrhizal fungi with molecular methods. The swap of the investigation area from Black Forest to a tropical mountain rain forest in South Ecuador implicated the swap from ectomycorrhizas to arbuscular mycorrhizas. In the species-rich forests from 1000 to 3000 m asl the communities of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi are analyzed and compared with deforested areas where reforestation experiments are conducted.
