Fruit body-forming fungi are hyperdiverse and of central importance for the functioning of
ecosystems worldwide. They provide habitat and resources for other organisms and perform …

The arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi form symbiotic associations with the majority of
terrestrial plants in a relationship estimated to be at least 470 million years old [1]. This …

Ecological interactions are important for maintaining biodiversity and ecosystem functions.
Particularly in stream biofilms, little is known about the distributional patterns of different …

Fungi play a vital role in ecosystem functioning, yet significant knowledge gaps persist in
understanding their diversity and distribution leading to uncertainties about their threat …

Aim We used two fungal data sources for occurrence records (fruitbodies and roots) to (1)
test the influence of data source on estimating the environmental niche of ectomycorrhizal …

Habitat fragmentation reduces gene flow, causing genetic differentiation and diversity loss in
endangered species through genetic drift and inbreeding. However, the impact of habitat …

Context Fungi represent a large part of soil biodiversity as well as an essential role for tree
hydromineral nutrition, survival, and carbon cycling. While their local diversity has proven to …

Methods This study utilized the Competitor, Stress-tolerator, and Ruderal (CSR) theory for
plant classification, and FAPROTAX and FUNGuild for soil bacterial and fungal functional …

Plants host diverse communities of fungi (the mycobiota), playing crucial roles in their
development. The assembly processes of the mycobiota, however, remain poorly …

In lakes, fungi play pivotal roles in biogeochemical processes, particularly in the
decomposition of organic matter. However, these organisms have been historically …
