Taxonomy of a novel and a new geographical record of Nigropunctata species (Pallidoperidiaceae) on Bambusa vulgaris from northern Thailand

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Nigropunctata is an understudied genus of bambusicolous fungi, and its diversity in Thailand remains poorly known. This study aimed to investigate species of Nigropunctata associated with bamboo in Thailand using morphological observations along with multi‐locus phylogenetic analyses of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS), large subunit (LSU), RNA ...

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 ...

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.

Trade‐offs between soil biodiversity and agricultural expansion: Evidence from litter decomposition dynamics in Madagascar

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Home‐Field Advantage (HFA) theory—positing that litter decomposes faster at its site of origin—allows us to disentangle the respective influences of litter quality, soil biota composition, and microclimate on shifts in litter decomposition following land use conversion.

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.

Reduction in litter allelochemicals promotes positive biotic interactions among alien species

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract A key focus of invasion ecology is elucidating why multiple alien species accumulate within ecosystems. The invasional meltdown hypothesis proposes that one alien invader promotes further invasions through soil legacy effects.

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.

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 ...
