Molecular data form an important research tool in most branches of mycology. A non-trivial
proportion of the public fungal DNA sequences are, however, compromised in terms of …

Despite advances owing to molecular approaches, several hurdles still obstruct the
identification of fungi forming orchid mycorrhizas. The Tulasnellaceae exhibit accelerated …

Rapid identification of biological specimens or fragments of biological origin has always
been desirable, but has rarely been possible owing to a shortage of natural history …

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

A long‐term goal of community ecology is to identify spatial and temporal factors that
underlie observed community structures. Ultimately, ecologists seek to relate community …

The niche is generally viewed in terms of species' intrinsic physiological potential and
limitations due to competition. Although DNA sequencing has revealed the ubiquity of …

Relatively little is known about diversity or structure of tropical ectomycorrhizal communities
or their roles in tropical ecosystem dynamics. In this study, we present one of the largest …

A growing body of molecular research is discovering a high diversity of pezizalean
ectomycorrhiza (EcM), yet most remain unidentified at the genus or species level. This study …

A key component of biodiversity is the number and abundance of individuals (ie genotypes),
and yet such intraspecific diversity is rarely considered when investigating the effects of …

Current knowledge of the succession of fungi in decaying wood is mostly based on fruit
bodies and in vitro culture. Here, we investigated the changing community of metabolically …
