Boreal forests harbour diverse fungal communities with decisive roles in decomposition and
plant nutrition. Although changes in boreal plant communities along gradients in soil acidity …

Soil fungi, especially the functional guilds of saprotrophs and symbiotrophs, play a central
role in ecosystem processes such as decomposition and plant nutrient acquisition. Fungal …

Soil microorganisms are considered C‐limited, while plant productivity is frequently N‐
limited. Large stores of organic C in boreal forest soils are attributed to negative effects of …

Interactions between Norway spruce trees and bacteria and fungi in nutrient limited boreal
forests can be beneficial for tree growth and fitness. Tree-level effects of anthropogenic …

Fungi are known to exert a significant influence over soil organic matter (SOM) turnover,
however understanding of the effects of fungal community structure on SOM dynamics and …

Soil microbiome has a pivotal role in ecosystem functioning, yet little is known about its build-
up from local to regional scales. In a multi-year regional-scale survey involving 1251 plots …

Fungal communities are important for carbon (C) transformations in boreal forests that are
one of the largest C pools in terrestrial ecosystems, warranting thus further investigation of …

Fungi have important roles as decomposers, mycorrhizal root symbionts and pathogens in
forest ecosystems, but there is limited information about their diversity and composition at …

The flux of carbon from tree photosynthesis through roots to ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi
and other soil organisms is assumed to vary with season and with edaphic factors such as …

Fungi are important members of soil microbial communities with a crucial role in
biogeochemical processes. Although soil fungi are known to be highly diverse, little is …
