Recent studies have shown that changes in community compositions of ectomycorrhizal
(ECM) fungi along elevation gradients are mainly affected by changes in host tree …

Community compositions of ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi are similar within the same host
taxa. However, careful interpretation is required to determine whether the combination of …

Ectomycorrhizal (EcM) fungi play important roles in forest ecosystems, and their richness
and composition can change along with elevation and season changes. However, no study …

Host identity has been recognized as a key determinant of the structure of ectomycorrhizal
(ECM) fungal communities, but the importance of neighboring ECM hosts is less well …

Changes in species richness and distributions of ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungal communities
along altitudinal gradients have been attributed to changes in both host distributions and …

We sought to characterize how abiotic and biotic factors, including identities of tree hosts,
influence ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungal composition on tree roots in mixed upland forests of …

Tree species identity is one of the key factors driving ectomycorrhizal (EcM) fungal richness
and community composition in boreal and temperate forest ecosystems, but little is known …

Although the eco-evolutionary dynamics of multicellular organisms are intertwined with the
microorganisms that colonize them, there is only a rudimentary understanding of how a …

Ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi play major ecological roles in temperate and tropical
ecosystems. Although the richness of ECM fungal communities and the factors controlling …

Ectomycorrhizal (ECM) associations are an important form of symbiosis for the majority of
tree species. In forest ecosystems where nutrients are often limited, ECM associations are …
