Mycorrhizas are among the most important biological interkingdom interactions, as they
involve~ 340,000 land plants and~ 50,000 taxa of soil fungi. In these mutually beneficial …

Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) constitute an enigmatic class of enzymes,
the discovery of which has opened up a new arena of riveting research. LPMOs can …

Mycorrhizal fungi are mutualists that play crucial roles in nutrient acquisition in terrestrial
ecosystems. Mycorrhizal symbioses arose repeatedly across multiple lineages of …

Many trees form ectomycorrhizal symbiosis with fungi. During symbiosis, the tree roots
supply sugar to the fungi in exchange for nitrogen, and this process is critical for the nitrogen …

In this review, we highlight the main insights that have been gathered from recent
developments using large-scale genomics of fungal saprotrophs and symbiotrophs …

Fungal interactions with plant roots, either beneficial or detrimental, have a crucial impact on
agriculture and ecosystems. The cosmopolitan plant pathogen Fusarium oxysporum (Fo) …

The postindustrial era is currently facing two ecological challenges. First, the rise in global
temperature, mostly caused by the accumulation of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere …

Ectomycorrhizas are an intrinsic component of tree nutrition and responses to environmental
variations. How epigenetic mechanisms might regulate these mutualistic interactions is …

To establish and maintain a symbiotic relationship, the ectomycorrhizal fungus Laccaria
bicolor releases mycorrhiza‐induced small secreted proteins (MiSSPs) into host roots. Here …

Plant cells are surrounded by a structured cell wall, which not only defines cell shape but
also provides a structural barrier for protection against pathogen infection. However, the …
