Ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi play an important role in the establishment and development of
forests by increasing the water and nutrient uptake of their host trees (Smith and Read …

Interactions between trees and ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi are critical for the growth and
survival of both partners. However, ECM symbiosis in endangered trees has hardly been …

Abstract Ectomycorrhizal (EM) networks (MN) are thought to be an important mode of EM
fungal colonization of coniferous seedlings. How MNs affect EM communities on seedlings …

Exotic non-native Pinus species have been widely planted or become naturalized in many
parts of the world. Pines rely on ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi mutualisms to overcome …

The importance of mycorrhizal network (MN)-mediated colonization under field conditions
between trees and seedlings was investigated. We also determined the combined …

Mexico is a center of diversity for pines, but few studies have examined the ectomycorrhizal
(ECM) fungal communities associated with pines in this country. We investigated the ECM …

We have investigated colonization strategies by comparing the abundance and frequency of
ectomycorrhizal fungal species on roots in a mature Pinus muricata forest with those present …

Coinvasive ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi allow Pinaceae species to invade regions
otherwise lacking compatible symbionts, but ECM fungal communities permitting Pinaceae …

For tree seedlings in boreal forests, ectomycorrhizal (EM) fungal networks may promote,
while root competition may impede establishment. Thus, disruption to EM fungal networks …

Despite the immense amount of diversity present in the soil biota, the ecological and
evolutionary processes that regulate species diversity and abundance of ectomycorrhizal …
