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

Quercus woodlands are key components of California's wild landscapes, yet little is known
about ectomycorrhizal (EM) fungi in these ecosystems.• We examined the EM community …

Wildfires and prescribed burns constitute widespread and potentially destructive
disturbances in forest ecosystems. Fire-related effects on aboveground ecosystem …

We analysed the ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungal diversity in a Mediterranean old-growth
Quercus ilex forest stand from Corsica (France), where Arbutus unedo was the only other …

Ectomycorrhizal fungal (EMF) communities are highly diverse at the stand level. To begin to
understand what might lead to such diversity, and to improve sampling designs, we …

To appreciate the functional diversity of communities of soil eukaryotic micro-organisms we
evaluated an experimental approach based on the construction and screening of a cDNA …

Sexual reproduction is the basic way to form high genetic diversity and it is beneficial in
evolution and speciation of fungi. The global diversity of teleomorphic species in …

Understanding spatial and temporal patterns present in ectomycorrhizal fungal community
structure is critical to understanding both the scale and duration of the potential impact these …

Here, the diversity of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi was determined in a boreal herb‐
rich coniferous forest in relation to environmental variables.• Root samples of five plant …

The fungal kingdom is a hyperdiverse group of multicellular eukaryotes with profound
impacts on human society and ecosystem function. The challenge of documenting and …
