Little is known about the response of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal communities to
ecosystem development. We use a long‐term soil chronosequence that includes ecosystem …

Introduction Knowledge of the factors that determine ectomycorrhizal fungal community
structure is essential in many areas of practical significance including conservation, habitat …

Our understanding of the controls on mycorrhizal fungal species distribution and community
organization is in its early childhood-especially when compared with that of the more mature …

Individual trees, either of the same or different species, can be linked spatially and
temporally by the hyphae of ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi that allow carbon and nutrients to …

Ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi form mutualistic symbioses with many tree species and are
regarded as key organisms in nutrient and carbon cycles in forest ecosystems. Our …

Knowledge of spatiotemporal patterns in species distribution is fundamental to
understanding the ecological and evolutionary processes shaping communities. The …

Both competition and environmental filtering are expected to influence the community
structure of microbes, but there are few tests of the relative importance of these processes …

In many semi-natural and natural ecosystems, mycorrhizal fungi are the most abundant and
functionally important group of soil micro-organisms. They are almost wholly dependent on …

Ectomycorrhizal fungal communities have been characterized in a number of ways. Here we
compare colonized root‐tip and mycelia views of an ectomycorrhizal fungal community.• …
