The symposium on "Zinc in Soils and Plants" is the third in a
series which began with "Copper in Soils and Plants" in Perth in
1981 and continued with "Manganese in Soils and Plants" in Adelaide
in 1988. The symP9sium brings together a series of valuable
accounts of many aspects of the reactions of zinc in soils, the
uptake, transport and utilization of zinc in plants, the diagnosis
and correction of zinc deficiency in plants and the role of zinc in
animal and human nutrition. I am grateful for the financial support
provided by Grains Research and Development Corporation, Rural
Industries Research and Development Corporation, Wool Research and
Development Corporation, Ansett Australia, and Qantas Australian. I
am most appreciative of the willingness of many scientists to act
as referees: G S P Ritchie, R J Gilkes, N C Uren, K Tiller, BLeach,
H Greenway, N E Longnecker, J F Loneragan, Z Rengel, C A Atkins, J
W Gartrell, P J Randall, D G Edwards, R J Hannam, R J Moir, J E
Dreosti, N Suttle, C L White, H Marschner, N Wilhelm, M McBride.
All provided valuable comments on the manuscripts. Finally, I thank
Mrs M Davison who provided excellent secretarial assistance. A.D.

This book is the most up-to-date and comprehensive review of our
knowledge of the management of mycorrhizas in agriculture,
horticulture and forestry. It contains twenty-four reviews written
by leading international scientists from eight countries. The
reviews consider the ecology, biology and taxonomy of arbuscular
and ectomycorrhizal fungi, the information and functioning of
mycorrhizas and opportunities for managing these symbioses. The
book will be essential reading for scientists and advisors
responsible for ensuring that the maximum benefit is obtained from
mycorrhizal symbioses in agriculture, horticulture and forestry and
in the reclamation of degraded lands.
