Positive citation bias and overinterpreted results lead to misinformation on common mycorrhizal networks in forests

J Karst, MD Jones, JD Hoeksema - Nature Ecology & Evolution, 2023 - nature.com
A common mycorrhizal network (CMN) is formed when mycorrhizal fungal hyphae connect
the roots of multiple plants of the same or different species belowground. Recently, CMNs …

Ectomycorrhizal networks in the Anthropocene: from natural ecosystems to urban planning

L Authier, C Violle, F Richard - Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 - frontiersin.org
