Abstract	In northern boreal forests, podzolic soils prevail that comprise of a distinct upper organic humus/mor (O) horizon that is supported by underlying eluvial (E) and illuvial (B) mineral horizons. The dominant tree species, Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.), is known to be highly dependent on root symbiosis with ectomycorrhizal fungi that develop in constituent podzol horizons for growth in these nutrient limited soils. The aim of this microcosm-based study was a quantification of photosynthetically fixed $^{14}$C allocation, following standard pulse-feeding of 7-month-old Scots pine seedling shoots, to respective root and mycorrhizosphere compartments that developed in the reconstructed podzol (O, E and B) profile. Biomass of roots and mycorrhizas decreased with increasing soil depth but no soil origin, control forest vs. clear-cut area, related differences were observed. Similarly, no major soil origin- or podzol horizon-related differences in categorised ectomycorrhizal morphotypes and number of mycorrhizas, in relation to pooled root and mycorrhiza biomass, were detected. However, the total recovery of $^{14}$C-label was significantly higher in clear-cut soil microcosms compared to control counterparts. A significant finding was equivalent $^{14}$C-carbon allocation to roots and ectomycorrhizas in all three major, organic and mineral, podzol profile horizons studied. These carbon allocation data provide additional support for direct (or indirect) roles of roots and symbiotic mycorrhizal fungi in mineral weathering and biodegradation of organic ligands that are central for plant acquisition of growth limiting nutrients and the podzolization process in boreal forest ecosystems.
