Responses of fungal diversity and community composition after 42 years of prescribed fire frequencies in semi-arid savanna rangelands

Frontiers in Environmental Science
Prescribed fire frequencies have been widely used to reduce the risk of severe wildfire occurrences. In addition, several studies have been conducted to assess the impact of fire frequencies on vegetation, vertebrate, and invertebrate species, as well as

Partial mycoheterotrophy: a common strategy in arbuscular mycorrhizal plants?

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Proposed autotrophy to mycoheterotrophy continuum among arbuscular mycorrhizal plants. Summary The vast majority of land plants transfer part of the organic carbon they produce by photosynthesis to arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi inside their root cells; the fungi in turn help plants to take up nutrients and water from the soil.

Four Endophytic Ascomycetes New to Korea: Cladosporium anthropophilum, C. pseudocladosporioides, Daldinia eschscholtzii, and Nigrospora chinensis

한국균학회지, 2019
Ascomycota is the largest phylum of the Fungi, including approximately 6,600 genera. They are often isolated from soils, indoor air, and freshwater environments, but also from plants as pathogens or endophytes.

Cretaceous moss–cyanobacteria association reveals trophic interactions in polar forests of Antarctica

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Kimmerera cyanifera gen. et sp. nov. with associated cyanobacteria, holotype UWBM 116051. Summary Through symbiotic associations with microbes, mosses play many important ecological roles in terrestrial ecosystems, such as facilitating trophic interactions and nitrogen cycling.

Unexplored microfungal diversity from dead woody litter in the dry-hot valleys of Honghe (Yunnan, China)

Studies in Fungi
Despite the critical ecological role fungi play across various ecosystems, the mycoflora of dry-hot valleys remains largely underexplored. This study aims to fill this gap by documenting the diversity and taxonomy of microfungal species in this unique ...

Circadian Clock Gates Verticillium dahliae Defence in Cotton by Modulating JAZs Expression

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The circadian clock plays critical roles in orchestrating temporal regulation of diverse physiological processes. However, its role in mediating root‐associated immunity against soil‐borne pathogens in crops remains poorly understood. Here, we show that cotton circadian clock gates nighttime resistance to vascular fungal pathogen Verticillium ...

Black mangrove growth and root architecture in recycled glass sand: testing a new substrate for coastal restoration

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
As coastal regions experience accelerating land loss, artificial substrates may be useful in restoration efforts to replenish sediment and facilitate plant colonization. Recycled glass sand is a potential artificial substrate for marsh building due to its sustainability, availability, and similarity to natural substrates.
