Fungi comprise approximately 20% of all eukaryotic species and are connected to virtually
all life forms on Earth. Yet, their diversity remains contentious, their distribution elusive, and …

The development of high‐throughput sequencing (HTS) technologies has greatly improved
our capacity to identify fungi and unveil their ecological roles across a variety of ecosystems …

The roots of Arabidopsis thaliana host diverse fungal communities that affect plant health
and disease states. Here, we sequence the genomes of 41 fungal isolates representative of …

Plant–fungal interactions are widespread in nature, and their multiple benefits for plant
growth and health have been amply demonstrated. Endophytic and epiphytic fungi can …

Understanding how species-rich communities persist is a foundational question in ecology.
In tropical forests, tree diversity is structured by edaphic factors, climate, and biotic …

Molecular identification methods, in particular high-throughput sequencing tools, have
greatly improved our knowledge about fungal diversity and biogeography, but many of the …

Fungi are an important and diverse component in various ecosystems. The methods to
identify different fungi are an important step in any mycological study. Classical methods of …

Soil fungi are crucial microorganisms in the functioning of ecosystems. They shape the soil
properties, facilitate nutrient circulation, and assist with plant growth. However, their …

Leaves interact with a wealth of microorganisms. Among these, fungi are highly diverse and
are known to contribute to plant health, leaf senescence and early decomposition. However …

Adding high-value products, such as carbon-based electrode materials for electrochemical
energy storage, to the value chain of biorefinery may increase the profits of the whole …
