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 …

Soil abiotic factors are considered to be important in determining the distribution of
ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungal species; however, there are few field data to support this …

Ectomycorrhizal fungi (EMF) are critical for pine establishment under primary succession.
The species of EMF supporting primary successional pine seedlings on coastal sand dunes …

Regions of rDNA are commonly used to infer phylogenetic relationships among fungal
species and as DNA barcodes for identification. These regions occur in large tandem arrays …

Assessing soil microbial community structure by the use of molecular techniques requires a
satisfactory sampling strategy that takes into account the high microbial diversity and the …

Seedlings are highly sensitive to their environment. After seeds, they typically suffer the
highest mortality of any life history stage. This book provides a comprehensive exploration of …

La connaissance de la structure des communautés de champignons ectomycorhiziens au
sein des classes d'âge dans la succession forestière est critique pour la conservation de la …

A number of recent review articles on ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungal community diversity
have highlighted the unprecedented increase in the number of publications on this …

This work was aimed at understanding how the functional diversity of ectomycorrhizas
(ECM) is driven by environmental factors and how it adapts to the structure of the forest …

The hyphae of ectomycorrhizal and ericoid mycorrhizal fungi proliferate in nitrogen (N)-
limited forests and tundra where the availability of inorganic N is low; under these conditions …
