title: Generic composition and physiological and cultural properties of heterotrophic bacteria isolated from soil, rhizosphere and mycorrhizosphere of pine (Pinus silvestris L.).
abstract: Among the bacteria studied Arthrobacter globiformis was predominating in the root zone, while in the non-rhizosphere soil most numerous were Bacillus circulans and A. globiformis. Ammonifiers were more numerous among the root zone bacteria than among the root free soil organisms. The reverse was noted with bacteria capable of hydrolysing starch, cellulose, pectin and chitin.
