Prescribed burning is a common management tool to control fuel loads, ground vegetation,
and facilitate desirable game species. We evaluated soil fungal community responses to …

Prescribed fire is an important management tool to reduce fuel loads, to remove non-fire
adapted species and to sustain fire-adapted taxa in many forested ecosystems of the …

Environmental change and long-term fire management in the western United States have
created conditions that facilitate high-intensity burn areas in forested systems. Such burns …

Decades of fire suppression coupled with changing climatic conditions have increased the
frequency and intensity of wildfires. The Southern Appalachia region of the United States is …

Ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa) forests are increasingly experiencing high-severity,
stand-replacing fires. Whereas alterations to aboveground ecosystems have been …

Forest fires are a common natural disturbance in forested ecosystems and have a large
impact on the microbial communities in forest soils. The response of soil fungal communities …

Mega‐fires of unprecedented size, intensity and socio‐economic impacts have surged
globally due to climate change, fire suppression and development. Soil microbiomes are …

Lodgepole pine forests are under threat due to wildfires of increasing severity and frequency
coupled with tree mortality from insect outbreaks. Soil microbial communities, which drive …

While the negative effects of infrequent, high-intensity fire on soil fungal abundance are well-
understood, it remains unclear how the short-term history of frequent, low-intensity fire in fire …

Stand-replacing fires influence soil nitrogen availability and microbial community
composition, which may in turn mediate post-fire successional dynamics and nutrient …
