The functional role of ericoid mycorrhizal plants and fungi on carbon and nitrogen dynamics in forests
Ericoid mycorrhizal (ErM) shrubs commonly occur in forest understories and could therefore

Diversity and distribution of tropical ectomycorrhizal fungi
The tropics were long considered to have few ectomycorrhizal fungi, presumably due to a
paucity of ectomycorrhizal host plants relative to higher-latitude ecosystems. However, an …
