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

open access: yesPlants, 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.

Quercirhiza quadratum: a revision of the characters and identity of the ad type ectomycorrhiza [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The well-known AD type, described first by Giraud in 1988, is considered as a competitor in black truffle (Tuber melanosporum Vittad.) plantations. It has been mainly observed in T. melanosporum and T. magnatum Pico plantations in France and Italy. This

Ectomycorrhizas of Cercocarpus ledifolius (Rosaceae) [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, 2010
• Premise of the study: Woody species in the Rosaceae form ectomycorrhizal associations, but the fungal symbionts are unknown. The species of fungi determine whether host plants are isolated from other ectomycorrhizal species in the plant community or linked with other trees through mycorrhizal networks.

Factors influencing fine roots decomposition rates in response to nitrogen addition vary across root characteristics

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 12, Page 3504-3516, December 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Nitrogen (N) deposition strongly affects litter decomposition and nutrient release, thereby reshaping carbon cycling in terrestrial ecosystems. Although most studies have focused on above‐ground litter, the effects of N addition on fine root decomposition and their ...

Chinese Black Truffle (Tuber indicum) Alters the Ectomycorrhizosphere and Endoectomycosphere Microbiome and Metabolic Profiles of the Host Tree Quercus aliena

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Truffles are one group of the most famous ectomycorrhizal fungi in the world. There is little information on the ecological mechanisms of truffle ectomycorrhizal synthesis in vitro. In this study, we investigated the ecological effects of Tuber indicum –

Biogeographic Patterns of Ectomycorrhizal Fungal Communities Associated With Castanopsis sieboldii Across the Japanese Archipelago

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Biogeographic patterns in ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungal communities and their drivers have been elucidated, including effects of host tree species and abiotic (climatic and edaphic) conditions.

Soil phosphate availability drives shifts between arbuscular mycorrhizal and ectomycorrhizal fungi in the dual mycorrhizal plant Quercus serrata

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 5, Page 2542-2552, December 2025.
Summary Dual mycorrhizal plants are associated with both arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) and ectomycorrhizal (EcM) fungi that differ in cost and effectiveness for nutrient acquisition. Little is known about environmental drivers for the shifts between these associations in dual mycorrhizal plants.

Rapid Transfer of Plant Photosynthates to Soil Bacteria via Ectomycorrhizal Hyphae and Its Interaction With Nitrogen Availability

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Plant roots release recent photosynthates into the rhizosphere, accelerating decomposition of organic matter by saprotrophic soil microbes (“rhizosphere priming effect”) which consequently increases nutrient availability for plants. However, about 90% of

Influence of mycorrhization on physiological parameters of micropropagated Castanea sativa Mill. plants [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Mycorrhizal micropropagated Castanea sativa plants were studied in terms of growth and physiological parameters following in vitro mycorrhization with Pisolithus tinctorius.
