  abstract = {{T}he plants belonging to the {E}ricaceae family are morphologically diverse and widely distributed groups of plants. {T}hey are typically found in soil with naturally poor nutrient status. {T}he objective of the current study was to identify cultivable mycobionts from roots of nine species of {E}ricaceae ({C}alluna vulgaris, {E}rica arborea, {E}rica australis, {E}rica umbellate, {E}rica scoparia, {E}rica multiflora, {A}rbutus unedo, {V}accinium myrtillus, and {V}accinium corymbosum). {T}he sequencing approach was used to amplify the {I}nternal {T}ranscribed {S}pacer ({ITS}) region. {R}esults from the phylogenetic analysis of {ITS} sequences stored in the {G}enbank confirmed that most of strains (78) were ascomycetes, 16 of these were closely related to {P}hialocephala spp, 12 were closely related to {H}elotiales spp and 6 belonged to various unidentified ericoid mycorrhizal fungal endophytes. {A}lthough the isolation frequencies differ sharply according to regions and ericaceous species, {H}elotiales was the most frequently encountered order from the diverse assemblage of associated fungi (46.15%), especially associated with {C}. vulgaris (19.23%) and {V}. myrtillus (6.41%), mostly present in the {L}oge ({L}) and {M}ellousa region ({M}). {M}oreover, multiple correspondence analysis ({MCA}) showed three distinct groups connecting fungal order to ericaceous species in different regions.},
