Abstract Containerized yellow-poplar seedlings grown for 19 weeks, in VAM (Glomus mosseae anti G. fasciculatum)-inoculated media, were outplanted on a strip mine spoil, an abandoned agricultural field, and a previously wooded site. Survival was significantly greater for the VAM treatments than for the control, but there were no differences between the two Glomus species. Survival was greatest on the mine spoil, where there was minimal competing vegetation; seedlings grew well enough to establish a plantation. Height and root collar diameter were significantly greater for the VAM seedlings than for the nonmycorrhizal seedlings. G. fasciculatum-colonized seedlings were consistently largest of all treatments. The previously wooded site produced the tallest seedlings. North. J. Appl. For. 6:20-22, March 1989.

Seed traps were set out on the spoil banks created by strip-mine coal operations in southeastern Saskatchewan. A total of 2721 seeds (2387 seeds/m2) was collected in the 1st season of which 97% was comprised of forb seeds and 3% of grass caryopses; 4216 seeds (3798 seeds/m2) were trapped in the 2nd year. Kochia scoparia was the most abundant species. Adequate seed input is occurring in the area to provide a good vegetation cover. The general absence of vegetation on the wastes must therefore reflect subsequent removal and deterioration of the seeds.
