Lack of information and difficulty in predicting wild edible sporocarp yields is blocking its
integration in forest management. In the Mediterranean area, this nontimber forest product …

Increasing temperatures are leading to upward migration of plant species in mountains, with
elevational shifts of the mountain tree-line being the most commonly documented response …

From the early 1800s science virtually ignored the cultivation of edible mycorrhizal
mushrooms other than the true truffles. The drought was finally broken by Nicole Poitou …

Fertilization typically reduces ectomycorrhizal diversity shortly after its application but less is
known about its longer-term influence on fungal species. Long-term effects are important in …

This study introduces a new approach to determine and assess total mushroom production
as well as to partitioning off this gross production into: non-harvested unripe production; non …

Current forestry policies and practices give little consideration to stewarding forest soils as
living ecosystems. I propose five practices that promote soil biodiversity and function. 1 …

The ectomycorrhizal fungi Tuber melanosporum Vittad. and Tuber aestivum Vittad. produce
highly valuable truffles, but little is known about the soil fungal communities associated with …

This study investigated the contributions of mixed arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF)
inoculum—ie, mixed populations of indigenous mycorrhiza (Glomus intraradices, Glomus …

Ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi are a key organism group enabling and enhancing the process
of open land colonization by ECM-dependent trees and shrubs. Through their functional …

Forest succession may cause changes in nitrogen (N) availability, vegetation and fungal
community composition that affect N uptake by trees and their mycorrhizal symbionts …
