Ectomycorrhizal (ECM) diversity was measured in 12 mixed‐wood stands in the Abitibi
region of north‐western Québec. Stands were of similar age and were situated on similar …

Studies of ectomycorrhizal fungal communities in forest soils are usually restricted to the
uppermost organic horizons. Boreal forest podzols are highly stratified and little is known …

Molecular methods have facilitated the identification of the ectomycorrhizal (ECM)
mycobionts on single root tips and there are an increasing number of studies which compare …

We investigated the community structure of ectomycorrhizal fungi under varying overstory
tree compositions in the southern mixed-wood boreal forest of Quebec. Sampling took place …

Molecular identification techniques based on total DNA extraction provide a unique tool for
identification of mycelium in soil. Using molecular identification techniques, the …

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 …

To advance our understanding of host effects on the community structure of ectomycorrhizal
fungi (EMF), EMF communities were compared among different host species, genera and …

One of the most challenging questions faced by ecologists is whether there is a general
relationship between biological diversity and ecosystem function. As rates of species …

The composition of ectomycorrhizal (EcM) fungal communities in Nothofagus rainforests and
the responses of the fungal communities to timber harvesting have been unknown. We …

We documented the patterns of root occupancy by Glomalean and ectomycorrhizal (EM)
fungi in Quercus agrifolia, and host plant responses to inoculation with each mycorrhizal …
