Plant economics traits predict plant carbon allocation and responsiveness to arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi under varying precipitation

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Most terrestrial plant species form symbioses with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). However, the below‐ground carbon (C) allocation of plants and the nutritional and growth benefits provided by AMF within this symbiosis vary greatly across species and environments ...

Depth‐dependent mechanisms regulate accumulation of plant‐ and microbial‐derived residues under long‐term nitrogen addition in a semiarid grassland

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plant‐ and microbial‐derived residues constitute the primary sources of soil organic carbon (SOC) in grassland ecosystems. However, their differential responses to chronic nitrogen (N) enrichment and the depth‐dependent mechanisms governing their accumulation remain ...

Fungal community structure in some alpine soils

Canadian Journal of Botany, 1979
The community structure and interactions among the soil microfungi of three alpine sites were investigated using a factor analytical method. The sites were distributed along an elevation gradient, and the diversity and evenness of allotment of species were inversely related to altitude.

Characterization of Fungal Community Structure on a Weathered Pegmatitic Granite

Microbial Ecology, 2005
This study exploited the contrasting major element chemistry of adjacent, physically separable crystals of framework and sheet silicates in a pegmatitic granite to investigate the mineralogical influences of fungal community structure on mineral surfaces.

Impact of metal pollution on fungal diversity and community structures

Environmental Microbiology, 2014
Summary The impact of metal pollution on plant communities has been studied extensively in the past, but little is known about the effects of metal pollution on fungal communities that occur in metal‐polluted soils. Metal‐tolerant ecotypes of the ectomycorrhizal fungus S

Climate and land cover shape the fungal community structure in topsoil

Science of The Total Environment, 2021
Globally, soils are subject to radical changes in their biogeochemistry as rampant deforestation and other forms of land use and climate change continue to transform planet Earth. To better understand soil ecosystem functioning, it is necessary to understand the responses of soil microbial diversity and community structure to changing climate, land ...

Changes in Soil Fungal Community Structure with Increasing Disturbance Frequency

Microbial Ecology, 2017
Although disturbance is thought to be important in many ecological processes, responses of fungal communities to soil disturbance have been little studied experimentally. We subjected a soil microcosm to physical disturbance, at a range of frequencies designed to simulate ecological disturbance events.

Rhizosphere fungal community structure succession of Xinjiang continuously cropped cotton

Fungal Biology, 2019
The large-scale long-term plantation of cotton in the Xinjiang region has been accompanied by a regular and wide outbreak of soil-borne fungal diseases such as verticillium wilt, which significantly damaged the local cotton industry. High-throughput sequencing data showed that the cotton field cultivation management measures pose a significant ...
