Although recent research indicates that herbivores interact with plant‐associated microbes
in complex ways, few studies have examined these interactions using a community …

Diversity of ectotrophic mycobionts on outplanted seedlings of two oak species (Quercus
rubra and Quercus prinus) was estimated at two sites in mature mixed forests in the southern …

We studied the effect of host plant identity and land‐use intensity (LUI) on arbuscular
mycorrhizal fungi (AMF, Glomeromycota) communities in roots of grassland plants. These …

To demonstrate the efficacy of direct DNA extraction from hyphal ingrowth bags for
community profiling of ectomycorrhizal (ECM) mycelia in soil, we applied the method to …

During the diversification of Fungi and the rise of conifer-dominated and angiosperm-
dominated forests, mutualistic symbioses developed between certain trees and …

The causes of local diversity and composition remain a central question in community
ecology. Numerous studies have attempted to understand community assembly, both within …

Diversity in glomalean fungi is manifested at the molecular, morphological, and ecological
levels. Characters at any of these levels can be ordered into hierarchical patterns defining …

Fungi in the Rhizoscyphus ericae aggregate have been recovered from the roots of co‐
occurring ericaceous shrubs and ectomycorrhizal trees. However, to date, there is no …

Ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungal mycelia are the main organs for nutrient uptake in many
woody plants, and often connect seedlings to mature trees. While it is known that resources …

While the effects of habitat size and isolation have been successfully studied for macro‐
organisms, there is currently debate about their relative importance in explaining patterns of …
