Rooting for function: community‐level fine‐root traits relate to many ecosystem functions

New Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 6, Page 3221-3239, December 2025.
Summary Humans are driving biodiversity change, which also alters community functional traits. However, how changes in the functional traits of the community alter ecosystem functions—especially belowground—remains an important gap in our understanding of the consequences of biodiversity change.

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.

Elevated CO2 mediates ectomycorrhizal fungi species‐specific decreases of native soil carbon and causes negative priming under low nutrients

New Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 4, Page 2052-2063, November 2025.
Summary Ectomycorrhizal fungi (ECM) can influence soil carbon (C) accrual and loss. The mechanisms and environmental controls of this balance are unclear, and direct evidence is needed. We assessed the influence of atmospheric CO2 and inorganic nitrogen (N) on the impact of two ECM fungi on the cycling of native and new soil C. We inoculated Eucalyptus

Decay stages of Jurassic wood debris from Scotland: evidence for the coevolution of fungal rot, arthropods and the nurse log strategy

New Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 3, Page 1557-1571, November 2025.
Summary A key feature of extant conifer forests is the high percentage of seeds that germinate and establish on dead wood; in some forests, this can exceed 90%. This deadwood can act as an ideal nursery for young tree species, leading to this type of seedbed being termed ‘nurse logs’.

Diversity and evolution of ABC proteins in mycorrhiza-forming fungi [PDF]

, 2015
Background: Transporter proteins are predicted to have an important role in the mycorrhizal symbiosis, due to the fact that this type of an interaction between plants and fungi requires a continuous nutrient and signalling exchange.

Spatio‐Temporal Plasticity of Root Exudation in Three Temperate Tree Species: Effects of Season, Site, and Soil Characteristics

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 177, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
ABSTRACT Root exudation provides a constant carbon input to the rhizosphere and is therefore a very important factor in shaping this hotspot of biological activity. Nonetheless, data on root exudation and its spatio‐temporal plasticity are scarce. This study provides insights into compound‐specific root exudation in three temperate tree species in two ...

Root-Associated Mycobiome Differentiate between Habitats Supporting Production of Different Truffle Species in Serbian Riparian Forests

Microorganisms, 2020
Balkan lowlands bordering with the Pannonia region are inhabited by diverse riparian forests that support production of different truffle species, predominantly the most prized white truffle of Piedmont (Tuber magnatum Pico), but also other commercial ...
