Edible mycorrhizal fungi of the world: What is their role in forest sustainability, food security, biocultural conservation and climate change?

Plants, People, Planet, 2021
Societal Impact Statement Edible mycorrhizal fungi (EMF) have been consumed since ancestral times by humans either as food, medicine or for ceremonial use.

Effect of Bio-Algeen® preparation on growth and mycorrhizal characteristics of Norway spruce seedlings

Journal of Forest Science, 2016
In this paper, the effect of the Bio-Algeen® product (bio-alginate from the seaweed Ascophyllum nodosum (Linnaeus) Le Jolis) was evaluated in relation to basic mycorrhizal and growth characteristics of Norway spruce (Picea abies (Linnaeus) H.

Interactions with soil fungi alter density dependence and neighborhood effects in a locally abundant dipterocarp species

Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Seedling recruitment can be strongly affected by the composition of nearby plant species. At the neighborhood scale (on the order of tens of meters), adult conspecifics can modify soil chemistry and the presence of host microbes (pathogens and mutualists)

Unveiling the Diversity of Hydnum in the Republic of Korea with One New Species, Hydnum paucispinum

Mycobiology, 2023
Hydnum is a genus of ectomycorrhizal fungi belonging to the Hydnaceae family. It is widely distributed across different regions of the world, including North America, Europe, and Asia; however, some of them showed disjunct distributions. In recent years,

Systematic mapping of experimental approaches to studying common mycorrhizal networks in arbuscular mycorrhiza

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Common mycorrhizal networks (CMN) capture the imagination of researchers and the public alike and have played a large role in communicating about mycorrhiza in general. With many of the claims about the functional importance of CMN recently under intense scrutiny, it becomes important to assess the literature on this topic.

Tree mycorrhizal type regulates leaf and needle microbial communities, affects microbial assembly and co-occurrence network patterns, and influences litter decomposition rates in temperate forest

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
BackgroundTree mycorrhizal types (arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and ectomycorrhizal fungi) alter nutrient use traits and leaf physicochemical properties and, thus, affect leaf litter decomposition.

Arbuscular mycorrhiza in the urban jungle: Glomeromycotina communities of the dominant city tree across Amsterdam

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Trees in cities provide a great number of benefits to people and nature, but they are challenged by harsh conditions. Trees rely on helpful fungi in their roots to get essential nutrients from the soil, but we do not know which of these fungi are resistant to city landscapes.

Ectomycorrhizal Mushrooms as a Natural Bio-Indicator for Assessment of Heavy Metal Pollution

Agronomy, 2022
Environmental changes and heavy metal pollution are some of the consequences of anthropogenic activities. Many ecosystems, including edaphic ecosystems, suffer from the effects of pollution. The accurate assessment of soil heavy metal contamination leads

Ectomycorrhizal fungal community succession and fragmentation across forest edges nearly three decades postharvest

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Forest management for wood products involves the conversion of primary forests to younger plantations. This has an immediate impact on biota such as ectomycorrhizal fungi, a diverse symbiotic fungal community. Alternatives to large clearcuts may be one way to mitigate harvesting effects.

Clarifying the definition of common mycorrhizal networks

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Common mycorrhizal networks (CMNs) are an enigmatic feature of soil and mycorrhizal ecology. The current use of the term ‘common mycorrhizal network’ stipulates a direct, continuous physical link between plants formed by the mycelium of mycorrhizal fungal genets.
