Temperate ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi show segregation whereby some species dominate
in organic layers and others favor mineral soils. Weak layering in tropical soils is …

Over the past decade the use of molecular techniques has provided new ways to study old
questions about how ectomycorrhizal fungi interact with each other and their environment. In …

Ectomycorrhizal fungi are among the most prevalent fungal partners of plants and can
constitute up to one-third of forest microbial biomass. As mutualistic partners that supply …

Multispecies mutualisms, such as the association between trees and ectomycorrhizal fungi,
are often shaped by environmental context. Here, we explored the functional mechanisms …

Tall fescue (Schedonorus arundinaceus) is a cool-season grass which is commonly infected
with the fungal endophyte Epichloë coenophiala. Although the relationship between tall …

Host identity is among the most important factors in structuring ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungal
communities. Both host–fungal coevolution and host shifts can account for the observed host …

The phylogenetic relationship of the asexual mycorrhizal fungusCenococcum geophilumFr.
among sexual ascomycetes was examined by phylogenetic analysis of nucleotide sequence …

The community of ectomycorrhizal (ECM) and co-associated fungi from a serpentine site
forested with Pinus sylvestris and Quercus petraea was explored, to improve the …

Evolutionary relationships among twenty isolates of the deuteromycete mycorrhizal fungus
Cenococcum geophilum were examined using molecular techniques. The ribosomal RNA …

Using spatial autocorrelation analysis, we examined the within-population genetic structure
of Rhizopogon vinicolor and R. vesiculosus, two hypogeous ectomycorrhizal (EM) species …
