Ericoid mycorrhizae (ERM) form between a range of fungal symbionts and the hair roots of ericaceous
plants. This data set includes the fungal symbionts that were identified from root hairs of Erica mammosa and Erica versicolor. The diversity of the symbionts were examined using both cloning and sequencing and automated ribosomal intergenic spacer analysis (ARISA). The data represent the collection details for the Ericas, as well as sequence reference and catalogue numbers for the isolates which are housed in the Microbiology Department of Stellenbosch University.

The data includes endophytes isolated from Erica mammosa roots which were cultured, and then DNA was extracted and sequenced.
Western Cape: City of Cape Town, Helderberg Nature Reserve; Stellenbosch, Jonkershoek Nature Reserve; Swartland, Riverlands-Pella research station
ARISA (Automated ribosomal intergenic spacer analysis) analysis was done on a number of roots from a variety of fynbos sites, and data comparisons were done to compare the endophytic community both within different regions of root systems, between individual plants, and between different nature reserves, to determine if any significant patterns of association exist.
No data verification or cleaning done. Co-ordinates for some samples are in deg,min,sec and others for deg,decimal mins (highlighted). Probable error in format for some of the latitudes - stated as seconds rather than minutes.
