Estimation of the most suitable nitrogen concentration for sporocarp formation in Laccaria japonica colonizing Pinus densiflora seedlings through in vitro mycelial culture.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Many ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi produce commercially valuable edible sporocarps. However, the effects of nitrogen (N) application on ECM fungal sporocarp formation remain poorly understood. In this study, we investigated the effect of application of various N concentrations (0, 5, 25, 50, 100, and 200 mg/L) on the growth of Laccaria japonica mycelia in vitro for 1 month. The results showed that L. japonica mycelial biomass was highest in the 50 mg/L treatment and was significantly inhibited at N concentrations higher than 200 mg/L. Next, we investigated the effects of N application on mycorrhizal colonization and sporocarp formation in L. japonica colonizing Pinus densiflora seedlings in pots. The seedlings were watered with nutrient solutions containing 0, 5, 25, 50, or 100 mg N/L. The biomass, photosynthetic rate, and mycorrhizal colonization rates of the seedlings were measured at 45 days (first appearance of primordia), 65 days (sporocarp appearance on the substrate surface), and 4 months after seedlings were transplanted. The numbers of primordia and sporocarps were recorded during the experimental period. Total carbon (C) and N content were determined in seedlings at 4 months after transplantation, and in L. japonica sporocarps. Both mycelial growth and sporocarp production reached their maximum at an N application concentration of 50 mg/L, suggesting that the most suitable N concentration for ECM fungal sporocarp formation can easily be estimated in vitro during mycelial growth. This finding may help determine the most suitable N conditions for increasing edible ECM fungus sporocarp production in natural forests.
