The evolution of ectomycorrhizal symbiosis in the Late Cretaceous is a key driver of explosive diversification in Agaricomycetes [PDF]
New Phytologist, Volume 241, Issue 1, Page 444-460, January 2024., 2023 Summary Ectomycorrhizal (EcM) symbiosis, a ubiquitous plant–fungus interaction in forests, evolved in parallel in fungi. Why the evolution of EcM fungi did not necessarily increase ecological opportunities for explosive diversification remains unclear.

Rhizosphere Effect Enhances Belowground Competition of Coastal Invasive <i>Spartina alterniflora</i> With Mangroves. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThis work demonstrated that the rhizosphere effect intensified the belowground interspecific competition of invasive Spartina alterniflora adjacent to mangroves by altering root exudates, changing soil microbial composition, and modulating some core nutrient metabolism strategies.
