Stable Isotope Signatures Illuminate Diverse Nutritional Strategies in Rhizoctonias and Their Orchid Partners

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 48, Issue 1, Page 792-804, January 2025.
ABSTRACT Understanding the nutritional ecology of orchids, particularly those in symbiosis with rhizoctonias, presents a complex challenge. This complexity arises partly from the absence of macroscopic fruit bodies in rhizoctonias, which impedes the acquisition of their stable isotope data.

Resistance and resilience of soil microbiomes under climate change

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2024.
Abstract Soil microbiomes play key roles in plant productivity and nutrient cycling, and we need to understand whether and how they will withstand the effects of global climate change. We exposed in situ soil microbial communities to multiple rounds of heat, drought, or heat and drought treatments, and profiled microbial communities with 16S rRNA and ...

Identification of fungal associates of the swamp helmet orchid (Corybas carsei), a threatened (nationally critical) species

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 62, Issue 4, Page 595-608, December 2024.
ABSTRACT Corybas carsei is one of New Zealand's most endangered orchids, with a single remaining population in the Whangamarino Wetland (North Island). Although orchid mycorrhizae have proved a critical aspect of orchid conservation globally, until now mycorrhizal fungi of C. carsei have not been identified or utilised for conservation.

Changes in the diversity of the mycorrhizal fungi of orchids as a function of the water supply of the habitat

open access: yesJournal of Applied Botany and Food Quality, 2012
Studies were made on the symbiotic associations of orchids in four habitats with diverse water regimes in order to determine whether there was any difference in the diversity of the symbiotic fungi of orchids in the various habitats.
