Understanding the role of ectomycorrhizal fungi in plant communities is hampered by a lack
of knowledge about fungal diversity. DNA barcoding of the ectomycorrhizal fungal genus …

Ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi are indispensable symbionts for the normal growth of many
tree species. Here, we report the underground primary succession of ECM fungi in a …

Abies religiosa forests in central Mexico are the only overwinter refuge of the monarch
butterfly and provide important ecosystem services. These forests have lost 55% of their …

The tropical rainforests of Peninsular Malaysia are dominated by trees of the
ectomycorrhizal family, the Dipterocarpaceae. Between 1992 and 1997 collections of …

The distribution patterns of tropical ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi along altitudinal gradients
remain largely unknown. Furthermore, despite being an iconic site for biodiversity research …

Several mechanisms may contribute to the high species richness often reported in
ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungal communities, including spatial and temporal partitioning …

Ectomycorrhizal fungi constitute an important component of soil biota in Nothofagus forests
in Patagonia. However, ectomycorrhizal fungal community is poorly known in this region …

Xerocomus cyaneibrunnescens, Xerocomus potaroensis, and Xerocomus parvogracilis
(Boletales, Basidiomycota) are described as new species from the Pakaraima Mountains of …

Ectomycorrhizal fungi (EcMF) are the key symbionts of numerous woody plants in many
ecosystems worldwide (Smith & Read, 2008; Tedersoo, 2017). They positively affect host …

We have used molecular techniques to investigate the diversity and distribution of the
arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi colonizing tree seedling roots in the tropical forest on …
