The functioning of ectomycorrhizal fungi in the field: linkages in space and time

MP Amaranthus, DA Perry - Plant and soil, 1994 - Springer
Individual trees, either of the same or different species, can be linked spatially and

Ectomycorrhizal fungal community structure across a bog-forest ecotone in southeastern Alaska

N Wurzburger, AS Hartshorn, RL Hendrick - Mycorrhiza, 2004 - Springer
We examined the ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungal community across a bog-forest ecotone in
southeastern Alaska. The bog and edge were both characterized by poorly drained …
