During the second week of June (8-11/6/2021) IPSP-CNR with the help of IDForest concluded the soil inoculation planned in the Chestnut orchard in San Godenzo and in both Silver fir stand (Metato) and Chestnut coppice (La Lama ) in Vallombrosa according to the updated Implementation Plan of LIFE MycoRestore project.

Six different species of Trichoderma, Clonostachys rosea, Amanita spp., Lactarius salmonicolor and Laccaria laccata inoculum (all locally selected and previously evaluated for their effectiveness) were added to the soil of selected plants as Biocontrol Agents (BCAs) of the soilborne target pathogens and to alleviate the drought stress of trees.
