Abstract	The influence of mycorrhizae on the nutrient uptake of strawberries and red raspberries was investigated. On red raspberries innoculation with a mycorrhizal fungus resulted in increased P uptake and a greater concentration of P in the shoots of the plants. The strawberries were innoculated with 2 species of mycorrhizal fungus. Both resulted in higher P and N concentrations in the shoot, but one fungus produced higher concentrations than the other. Measurement of the total mycorrhizal root length showed that the fungus species which resulted in the highest P and N concentration also had the highest level of infection.
