The goal of this project was to study how fungal communities in Mediterranean forests
dominated by Pinus pinaster are influenced by different edaphoclimatic conditions …

Soil fungi are vital for regulating ecosystem carbon balance and productivity, by driving
processes related to soil carbon and nutrient cycling. The rate and capacity of fungi …

Pinus uncinata is a species frequently growing in the tree line limit of southwestern
European subalpine ecosystems, hosting fungal communities that provide relevant …

Fungal communities are especially relevant in Mediterranean regions, a 'hotspot'of fungal
diversity, and where the value of edible commercial sporocarps may be much higher than …

In this study, an inventory of the macrofungi in the Collestrada forest (Umbria, Italy). was
performed through the collection of sporocarps of basidiomycetes and ascomycetes over a …

To analyze the implications of exotic radiata pine (Pinus radiata D. Don) plantations for
macrofungal diversity, a comparative mycocoenological survey was conducted over three …

Natural forests and plantations of Pinus are ecologically and economically important
worldwide, producing an array of goods and services, including the provision of non-wood …

Liguria (NW Italy) is a region characterised by a great richness in habitats, flora, and
mycobiota. In the first half of 20th century, many areas of Liguria were frequently reforested …

Soil microclimate is a potentially important regulator of the composition of plant‐associated
fungal communities in climates with significant drought periods. Here, we investigated the …

This study attempts to assess diversity and distribution of macrofungi in six Collestrada
woodland types characterized by a prevalent plant species: the Carpinus betulus, the …
