Abstract
This study was performed to isolate and identify the orchid mycorrhizal fungi (OMF) from roots of five species of terrestrial orchids in Korea; Cymbidium goeringii, Spiranthes sinensis, Calanthe discolor, Bletilla striata, Pogonia minor. DNA was extracted from isolated OMF and ITS region was amplified using primers, ITS1-OF and ITS4-OF. Four species of OMF belong to Tulasnellaceae and Sebacinaceae were identified; Tulasnella calospora, Tulasnella irregularis, Tulasnella sp., Sebacina vermifera.
