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.

Richness and Composition of Mycorrhizal Fungi Varies by Flood Level and River Basin in Oligotrophic Amazonian Seasonally Flooded Forests

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Conceptual representation of topographic gradients in Amazonian igapó forests. High, medium, and low igapós differ in elevation and flood duration, with low igapós experiencing the longest periods of inundation. Fungal mycelia and DNA symbols indicate sampling of root‐associated mycorrhizal communities across the gradient, used to assess the influence ...

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

Frontiers 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 –

Allelochemical and soil fungi co‐determine conspecific density dependence in a temperate forest

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Ecological theory predicts that the high local diversity observed in plant communities can be maintained by soilborne pathogens and allelopathic autotoxicity, both of which trigger negative conspecific density dependence (CDD). In contrast, mutualistic fungi and allelopathic promotion may counteract these biotic processes.

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

Frontiers 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.

Effects of tree diversity and mycorrhizal type on the spatio‐temporal variability of leaf litter production and quality in temperate forests

Journal of Ecology, Volume 114, Issue 4, April 2026.
This study tested whether combining high tree species richness with mixed mycorrhizal types (arbuscular mycorrhizal [AM] and ectomycorrhizal [EM] fungi) enhances productivity in forest ecosystems. Results did not support this: neither litter production nor nutrient traits benefited from mycorrhizal mixing.

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

Frontiers 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

Redistribution of soil water by mature trees towards dry surface soils and uptake by seedlings in a temperate forest

Plant Biology, Volume 28, Issue 3, Page 888-896, April 2026.
Mature beech trees redistributed soil water, equal to ca. 10% of stand transpiration, from deeper moist soils to dry surface soils, where it was taken up by seedlings of different tree species. Abstract Hydraulic redistribution is considered a crucial dryland mechanism that may be important in temperate environments facing increased soil drying–wetting

Mixture of Salix Genotypes Promotes Root Colonization With Dark Septate Endophytes and Changes P Cycling in the Mycorrhizosphere

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
The roots of Salix spp. can be colonized by two types of mycorrhizal fungi (ectomycorrhizal and arbuscular) and furthermore by dark-septate endophytes. The fungal root colonization is affected by the plant genotype, soil properties and their interactions.
