Ectomycorrhizal (ECM) association of fungi with plants involves diverse category of fungi.
They form a mutualistic association with the host plant, nourishing them with minerals and …

Soil depth partitioning is thought to promote the diversity of ectomycorrhizal (EM) fungal
communities, but little is known about whether it is controlled by abiotic or biotic factors. In …

Trees form symbioses with ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi, maintained in part through mutual
benefit to both organisms. Our understanding of the signaling events leading to the …

Plant range boundaries are generally considered to reflect abiotic conditions; however, a
rise in negative or decline in positive species interactions at range margins may contribute to …

Arbuscular mycorrhizal and ectomycorrhizal symbioses are among the most important
drivers of terrestrial ecosystem dynamics. Historically, the two types of symbioses have been …

The colonisation of tree roots by ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi is the result of numerous
signalling exchanges between organisms, many of which occur before physical contact …

Ectomycorrhizal (EM) fungi are ubiquitous in temperate and boreal forests, comprising over
20,000 species forming root symbiotic associations with Pinaceae and woody angiosperms …

Soil functioning is intrinsically related to the structure of associated biological communities.
This link is barely understood in the multispecies context of soil microbial communities …

Trees are able to colonize, establish and survive in a wide range of soils through
associations with ectomycorrhizal (EcM) fungi. Proper functioning of EcM fungi implies the …

Studies of the ecological and evolutionary relationships between plants and their associated
microbes have long been focused on single microbes, or single microbial guilds, but in …
