Despite decades of intensive research (especially from 1970s to 1990s), the ericoid
mycorrhizal (ErM) hair root is still largely terra incognita and this simplified guide is intended …

Ericoid mycorrhiza occur only within the plant family Ericaceae, yet are globally widespread
and contribute to carbon and nutrient cycling in many habitats where harsh conditions limit …

Root endophytic fungi are found in a great variety of plants and ecosystems, but the
ecological drivers of their biogeographic distribution are poorly understood. Here, we …

Understanding how environmental pollutants influence plant occurrence, growth, and
development is key for effective management plans and potential bioremediation. Rare …

Since the early colonization of land, plants depend, to various extents, on mycorrhizal fungi
to meet their nutrient demands. In most mycorrhizal symbioses, plants provide sugars …

The unresolved ecophysiological significance of Dark Septate Endophytes (DSE) may be in
part due to existence of morphologically indistinguishable cryptic species in the most …

Chaetosphaeriaceae is one of the largest families in Sordariomycetes with its members
commonly found on decaying leaf, fruit, branch, bark and wood in both terrestrial and …

Ericoid mycorrhiza is a mutualistic relationship between several lineages of plants in the
family Ericaceae (Cassiopoideae, Ericoideae, Harrimanelloideae, Styphelioideae, and …

The factors that control the assembly and composition of endophyte communities across
plant hosts remains poorly understood. This is especially true for endophyte communities …

Ericoid mycorrhiza is arguably the least investigated mycorrhizal type, particularly when
related to the number of potential hosts and the ecosystems they inhabit. Little is known …
