Orchid mycorrhizal fungi (OMF) were examined in roots of the six terrestrial species of orchids collected in Ulleung Islands. Seven OMF isolates from the roots of orchids were identified based on morphological and molecular characters. Internal transcribed spacer region of OMF DNA was amplified using basidiomycete-specific ITS primers, ITS1-OF and ITS4-OF. OMF beloning to Tulasnellaceae and Ceratobasidaceae was identified through molecular analysis.
