Mycorrhizal Barriers to the Upslope Migration of Tropical Trees

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 57, Issue 5, September 2025.
Mycorrhizae can impact soil nutrient cycling, with reduced nitrogen availability and increased litter depth beneath ectomycorrhizal Fagales. The presence of Fagales‐dominated montane forests in parts of Asia and Central America could impose a significant barrier to the upslope migration of lowland arbuscular mycorrhizal tree species migrating under ...

Ectomycorrhizae in the tropics

open access: yes, 1982
Ectomycorrhizae are symbiotic associations between fungi and plant roots in which the fungus forms a sheath around all or some of the fine absorbing rootlets. Hyphae penetrate between the root cells and occasionally enter the cells but they never penetrate beyond the cortex and any intracellular hyphae do not cause destruction of the host cell.

Descriptions of Ectomycorrhizae

open access: yes, 2006
The mycorrhiza is characterized by whitish to yellowish monopodial-pyramidal systems with smooth to loosely woolly surface, plectenchymatous outer mantle layers with clamped and irregularly arranged hyphae, undifferentiated rhizomorphs with smooth margins and paraepidermal Hartig net.

Mycorrhizal potential of two forest research plots with respect to reduction of the emissions from the Thermal Power Plant Sostanj

open access: yesActa Biologica Slovenica, 2003
The mycorrhizal potential of two differently polluted forest research plots was determined in the emission area of the Thermal Power Plant Sostanj. Zavodnje is the polluted, while Mislinja is the less polluted plot.

Comparative Genomics of the Ectomycorrhizal Sister Species Rhizopogon vinicolor and Rhizopogon vesiculosus (Basidiomycota: Boletales) Reveals a Divergence of the Mating Type B Locus

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2017
Divergence of breeding system plays an important role in fungal speciation. Ectomycorrhizal fungi, however, pose a challenge for the study of reproductive biology because most cannot be mated under laboratory conditions.

Animal-fungal interactions 2: first report of mycophagy by the Eastern European Hedgehog Erinaceus concolor Martin, 1837 (Mammalia: Eulipotyphla: Erinaceidae)

open access: yesJournal of Threatened Taxa, 2018
Mycophagy (fungivory) performs numerous important ecosystem functions for fungi, plants, and animals. Fungi serve as food for diverse mammals, ranging from bears, Ursus spp., to shrews, Sorex spp.

Overview of molecular methods for quick identification of Tuber species

open access: yesItalian Journal of Mycology
Truffles represent a resource of great value all over the world. The various species are widespread and occupy various habitats. Methods to identify their value in terms of marketing, cultivation, and the ecological–forestal field are needed.
