The role of common mycorrhizal networks (CMNs) in postfire boreal forest successional
trajectories is unknown. We investigated this issue by sampling a 50-m by 40-m area of …

Root‐associated fungi, particularly ectomycorrhizal fungi (EMF), are critical symbionts of all
boreal tree species. Although climatically driven increases in wildfire frequency and extent …

The effects of a prescribed fire on the presence of ectomycorrhizal fungi on the root tips of
ponderosa pine were investigated one year after a prescribed ground fire. Ectomycorrhizas …

Summary 1 The effects of wildfire ash on ectomycorrhizal (EM) associations were
investigated by sampling bishop pine (Pinus muricata, D. Don) seedlings from control and …

We sought to characterize how abiotic and biotic factors, including identities of tree hosts,
influence ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungal composition on tree roots in mixed upland forests of …

After severe wildfires, pine recovery depends on ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungal spores
surviving and serving as partners for regenerating forest trees. We took advantage of a …

Forest development patterns following wildfire are known to influence the physical and
chemical attributes of soils at different points in time, and are further thought to influence …

Summary 1 The obligate symbiosis formed between ectomycorrhizal fungi (EMF) and roots
of tree species in the Pinaceae influences nutrient uptake and surrounding soil structure …

Forest disturbances can alter mycorrhizal fungal communities with consequences for
subsequent plant establishment and growth. One possible mitigation strategy to promote …

Following a pine beetle epidemic in British Columbia, Canada, we investigated the effect of
fire severity on rhizosphere soil chemistry and ectomycorrhizal fungi (ECM) and associated …
