Abstrakt     In an attempt to establish a plant cover in the ash dump deposit form a thermoelectric power plant in Šoštanj, Slovenia, we used arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) plants. The fly ash was studied as a substrate for the growth of Tanacetum vulgare L. and the development of arbuscular mycorrhizae. Fly ash an alkaline substrate containing very little organic material. it has proven to be adequate for the development of AM. The experiment used flowerpot and field tests with the fly ash as a substrate. The percentage of infection with AM fungi was greater in the field than in the flowerpots. Morphological differences were observed between mycorrhizal and non-mycorrhizal plants. After eight months of growth, there were also differences in mineral content in plant tissues.
