In commercial forestry, the successful transplantation of crop trees to new sites often relies on the presence of an appropriate ectomycorrhizal partner. This is especially critical for trees that demonstrate a high degree of specificity towards their mycobionts, particularly when planted in areas where native fungal species may not naturally exist. This requirement is most evident in plantations involving obligate ectomycorrhizal species such as Eucalyptus and Pinus.

To promote the successful growth of these species in large-scale plantings, it is standard practice to introduce a native inoculum of ectomycorrhizal fungi. These fungi establish mutualistic associations with tree roots, significantly boosting nutrient absorption and overall plant well-being.

In addition to supporting tree health, species like pine and eucalyptus are favored in forestry due to their ability to sequester atmospheric carbon. This dual function highlights their significance not only in ecological restoration projects but also in combating climate change by acting as substantial carbon sinks.
