Dual‐mycorrhizal plants: their ecology and relevance
Dual‐mycorrhizal plants are capable of associating with fungi that form characteristic
arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) and ectomycorrhizal (EM) structures. Here, we address the …

Local‐scale biogeography and spatiotemporal variability in communities of mycorrhizal fungi
Knowledge of spatiotemporal patterns in species distribution is fundamental to
understanding the ecological and evolutionary processes shaping communities. The …

A general framework for quantitatively assessing ecological stochasticity
Understanding the community assembly mechanisms controlling biodiversity patterns is a
central issue in ecology. Although it is generally accepted that both deterministic and …

Deterministic processes vary during community assembly for ecologically dissimilar taxa
The continuum hypothesis states that both deterministic and stochastic processes contribute
to the assembly of ecological communities. However, the contextual dependency of these …

Endemism and functional convergence across the North American soil mycobiome
Identifying the ecological processes that structure communities and the consequences for
ecosystem function is a central goal of ecology. The recognition that fungi, bacteria, and …

Mycorrhizal and saprotrophic fungal guilds compete for the same organic substrates but affect decomposition differently
ITM Bödeker, BD Lindahl, Å Olson… - Functional …, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
Communities of litter saprotrophic and root‐associated fungi are vertically separated within
boreal forest soil profiles. It is unclear whether this depth partitioning is maintained …

Regional and local patterns of ectomycorrhizal fungal diversity and community structure along an altitudinal gradient in the Hyrcanian forests of northern Iran
Altitudinal gradients strongly affect the diversity of plants and animals, yet little is known
about the altitudinal effects on the distribution of microorganisms, including ectomycorrhizal …

Belowground biodiversity effects of plant symbionts support aboveground productivity
Ecology Letters (2011) 14: 1001–1009 Abstract Soil microbes play key roles in ecosystems,
yet the impact of their diversity on plant communities is still poorly understood. Here we …

Environmental filtering affects soil fungal community composition more than dispersal limitation at regional scales
The relative importance of dispersal limitation versus environmental filtering for community
assembly has received much attention for macroorganisms. These processes have only …

Partner selection in the mycorrhizal mutualism
GDA Werner, ET Kiers - New Phytologist, 2015 - Wiley Online Library
Partner selection in the mycorrhizal symbiosis is thought to be a key factor stabilising the
mutualism. Both plant hosts and mycorrhizal fungi have been shown to preferentially …
