Hi, I also wanted to mention in this lecture outline the experiment done with loblolly pines on the kaolin spoils sites. Nothing can usually be grown on such a harsh site as this desolate kaolinite in (I think) Georgia, but these pines are flourishing after being innoculated with mychorrizae. Check out the photos, they're amazing! This is some of the most extreme proof I've ever seen for the benefits of mychorrizae to the Genus Pinus.
All the best,
JDL
