Organ‐specific ozone and nitrogen legacies strengthen substrate control over litter decomposition

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Elevated tropospheric ozone (O3) and nitrogen (N) deposition are concurrent atmospheric changes that strongly influence terrestrial carbon cycling, yet their combined effects on below‐ground decomposition remain poorly understood.

Response of Fecal Bacteria and Fungi to Tannin‐Rich Diets in Sika Deer (Cervus nippon): Evidence from Both Feeding Experiments and Field Investigations

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Feeding with tannin‐rich diets altered the fecal microbial composition and increased the relative abundance of tannin‐degrading microbes. We hypothesize that fecal bacteria and fungi may play important roles in helping herbivores adapt to tannin‐rich diets but respond to different tannin concentrations varies.

Mycolichenological portrait of alder forest: alpha diversity revealed in 1ha plot in the Samursky National Park (Republic of Dagestan, Russia)

Юг России: экология, развитие
Aim. Xylobiont fungi and lichens determine the sustainability of forest ecosystems, but their species richness and taxonomic diversity depend on the forest type and the degree of its disturbance.

Whole genome sequencing of historical specimens from the world's largest fungal collection yields high‐quality assemblies

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary High‐throughput molecular studies of museum specimens (museomics) have great potential in biodiversity research, but fungal historical collections have scarcely been examined, leading to no comprehensive methodological assessments. Here we present a whole genome sequencing (WGS) project conducted at the Fungarium of the Royal Botanic Gardens ...

Singerocomus guadelupae (Boletaceae, Agaricomycetes): morphology and phylogeny reveal a widely distributed neotropical bolete discovered in Northeast Brazil

Italian Journal of Mycology
Singerocomus guadelupae is characterized by velutinous and red to pink pileus surface, cream to red or both colors mixed in stipe surface, unchanging white to cream pileus and stipe context, broadly ellipsoid inamyloid basidiospores, and fusoid to ...

Complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Pulveroboletus ravenelii (Boletales, Basidiomycota)

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2022
Pulveroboletus ravenelii, an ectomycorrhizal fungus, has long been used in traditional Chinese medicine and mushroom dyes; however, its mitogenome and phylogenetic relationship with other taxa remain unexplored.

Ecological and genomic variation in ectomycorrhizal fungal exploration types

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Ectomycorrhizal fungi (EMF) produce mycelia with variable extension and complexity, which can be classified according to soil ‘exploration types’ (ETs). ETs have received attention as one of the few mycorrhizal trait frameworks, but without an empirical classification of ET functional diversity and environmental preferences, understanding and ...

Conserved symbiosis‐associated genes in the cycad Encephalartos natalensis suggest co‐option for cyanobacterial symbiosis

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
The heterocyst‐rich Encephalartos natalensis cyanobacterial zone in coralloid root suggests co‐option of conserved symbiosis‐associated genes. This figure was created in BioRender (BioRender.com/https://BioRender.com/n3qveqc). Summary Plant‐cyanobacterial symbioses have evolved independently at least four times across land plants, yet their underlying ...

Adaptation of the Spore Discharge Mechanism in the Basidiomycota

PLoS ONE, 2009
Spore discharge in the majority of the 30,000 described species of Basidiomycota is powered by the rapid motion of a fluid droplet, called Buller's drop, over the spore surface. In basidiomycete yeasts, and phytopathogenic rusts and smuts, spores are discharged directly into the airflow around the fungal colony.
