	Post-fire Colonization of Cistus creticus L. Seedlings by Ectomycorrhizal Fungi in Aleppo Pine Forests in Central Greece
		In mature forests, ectomycorrhizal fungal mycelia tend to be concentrated in the litter and upper soil layers and are therefore prone to damage by fires.
		Cistus creticus L is an ectomycorrhizal woody perennial that establishes after fires in Aleppo pine (Pinus halepensis Mill.) forests from small, hard-coated seeds that are stored in the soil.
		Field observations, and field and greenhouse bioassays were used to assess spatial and temporal variation in post-fire colonization of Cistus creticus seedlings by ectomycorrhizal fungi and to investigate the potential of resprouting shrubs to act as refugia of ectomycorrhizal fungal inoculum.

		Characteristics for recognition: In the Balearics there are two rock roses which have a pink flower: one is Cistus albidus which can be found in all the islands, the other is Cistus creticus which is only present in Menorca.
		The leaves of Cistus creticus are more similar to those of Cistus salviifolius: rounded, with well marked, dark green reticulate veins.
		They can be distinguished by the basal part of the leaves: in Cistus creticus the petioles embrace the stalk forming a type of sheath; moreover, this species has white flowers.

	Paghat's Garden: Balm of Gilead
		The Pink Rock Rose Cistus incanus creticus is an evergreen subshrub long in our garden, which has a natural range extending from southern Europe through northern Africa into the Holy Land & Lebanon.
		Other Cistus species share this association with the Balm, & one of these, the Spanish Crimson-spot Gum Rock Rose (Cistus ladanifer maculatus) is even today a major source of essential oils believed to have medicinal properties.
		As this tree did not range into Europe, Catholics looked to their own environment for plants they could key to biblical flora, & in this case their choice may not have been off the mark.
