Responses of ectomycorrhizal fungi to changes in carbon and nutrient availability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi may receive 20% of the total C fixed by their host plants and are essential components of host nutrient acquisition. As a consequence of the vast physiological diversity that exists among ECM fungi, changes in community ...

Mycorrhizal status of an ozone-sensitive poplar clone treated with the antiozonant ethylene diurea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The antiozonant ethylene diurea is proven to prevent growth reductions in forest trees induced by ozone. The community of mycorrhizal fungi could be useful indicator of environmental stress.

Ecological and genomic variation in ectomycorrhizal fungal exploration types

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Ectomycorrhizal fungi (EMF) produce mycelia with variable extension and complexity, which can be classified according to soil ‘exploration types’ (ETs). ETs have received attention as one of the few mycorrhizal trait frameworks, but without an empirical classification of ET functional diversity and environmental preferences, understanding and ...

Species richness, abundance and phenology of fungal fruit bodies over 21 years in a Swiss forest plot [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Fungal fruit bodies were surveyed on a plot area of 1500 m2 from 1975¿99 (excluding 1980¿83) in the fungal reserve La Chaneaz in western Switzerland. Fruit bodies were identified and counted on a weekly basis.

Increased arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal biomass and diversity in soil under long‐term climate drying and warming

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) support critical ecosystem services including plant resource acquisition and productivity. AMF functional traits such as relative biomass investment in root vs soil colonization or drought tolerance are thought to be evolutionarily conserved within AMF lineages and might influence AMF community responses to ...

Stable isotopes of amino acids indicate that soil decomposer microarthropods predominantly feed on saprotrophic fungi

open access: yesEcosphere, 2021
Soil microarthropods are essential for nutrient cycling in forest ecosystems as they are integral components of decomposer food webs. They channel carbon and nutrients from leaf litter and roots to higher trophic levels; however, knowledge on the ...

Long‐term effects of clear‐cutting forestry on ectomycorrhizal fungi in boreal forest

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Clear‐cutting is detrimental to ectomycorrhizal fungi in a short time perspective, but long‐term effects on species richness and community composition are uncertain. To evaluate ecological sustainability of rotation forestry, we examined to what extent communities similar to those in old forests develop within the time frame of a rotation ...

TOLERANCE OF CANAFÍSTULA (Peltophorum dubium (SPRENG) TAUB.) SEEDLINGS INOCCULATED WITH Pisolithus microcarpus TO COPPER CONTAMINATED SOIL

open access: yesCiência Florestal, 2010
The ectomycorrhizal fungi symbiosis with native florestal essences may be an alternative to   revegetation of metal contaminated soils. The aim of this work was to determine canafístula seedlings behavior, inoculated to ectomycorrhizal fungi in soil with

Molecular evidence supports simultaneous association of the achlorophyllous orchid Chamaegastrodia inverta with ectomycorrhizal Ceratobasidiaceae and Russulaceae

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2020
Background Achlorophyllous orchids are mycoheterotrophic plants, which lack photosynthetic ability and associate with fungi to acquire carbon from different environmental sources. In tropical latitudes, achlorophyllous forest orchids show a preference to

Quantifying carbon allocation to mycorrhizal fungi by temperate forest tree species across a nitrogen availability gradient [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Terrestrial ecosystems make up the largest carbon pool with a major portion of that being forests. With carbon being a major concern due to global climate change, being able to make accurate models is increasingly important. Studies have shown that trees
