Light Structures Phototroph, Bacterial and Fungal Communities at the Soil Surface [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The upper few millimeters of soil harbour photosynthetic microbial communities that are structurally distinct from those of underlying bulk soil due to the presence of light. Previous studies in arid zones have demonstrated functional importance of these communities in reducing soil erosion, and enhancing carbon and nitrogen fixation.

Different spatial structure of plant‐associated fungal communities above‐ and belowground [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2023 AbstractThe distribution and community assembly of above‐ and belowground microbial communities associated with individual plants remain poorly understood, despite its consequences for plant–microbe interactions and plant health. Depending on how microbial communities are structured, we can expect different effects of the microbial community on the ...

Environmental responses of fruiting fungal communities are phylogenetically structured [PDF]
Ecography, 2023 Through their ephemeral reproductive structures (fruiting bodies), ectomycorrhizal forest soil fungi provide a resource for a plethora of organisms. Thus, resolving what biotic and abiotic factors determine the occurrence and abundance of fruiting bodies is fundamental for understanding the dynamics of forest trophic networks.

Effects of Oxathiapiprolin on the Structure, Diversity and Function of Soil Fungal Community
Toxics, 2022 Pesticides can affect non-target microorganisms in the soil and are directly related to soil microecological health and environmental safety. Oxathiapiprolin is a piperidinyl thiazole isoxazoline fungicide that shows excellent control effect against oomycete fungal diseases, including late blight, downy mildew, root rot, stem rot, and blight. Though it

Environmental filtering structures fungal endophyte communities in tree bark [PDF]
Molecular Ecology, 2019 AbstractThe factors that control the assembly and composition of endophyte communities across plant hosts remains poorly understood. This is especially true for endophyte communities inhabiting inner tree bark, one of the least studied components of the plant microbiome.

Influence of Different Vegetation Types on Soil Physicochemical Parameters and Fungal Communities
Microorganisms, 2022 This study assessed the effects of Betula dahurica (BD), Betula platyphylla (BP), Larix gmelinii (LG), Quercus mongolica (QM), and a mixed conifer–broadleaf forest composed of LG and QM (LGQM) on the soil physicochemical parameters and community ...

Host genotype shapes the foliar fungal microbiome of balsam poplar (Populus balsamifera) [PDF]
, 2013 Foliar fungal communities of plants are diverse and ubiquitous. In grasses endophytes may increase host fitness; in trees, their ecological roles are poorly understood.
