Impacts of large herbivores on mycorrhizal fungal communities across the Arctic

Ecography, Volume 2026, Issue 2, February 2026.
Mycorrhizal fungi play an integral role in nutrient and carbon cycling in soils, which may be especially important in the Arctic, one of the world's most soil carbon‐rich regions. Large mammalian herbivores can influence these fungi through their impacts on vegetation and soil conditions, however the strength and prevalence of these interactions in the

Structure and specialization of mycorrhizal networks in phylogenetically diverse tropical communities

Environmental Microbiome, 2022
Background The root mycobiome plays a fundamental role in plant nutrition and protection against biotic and abiotic stresses. In temperate forests or meadows dominated by angiosperms, the numerous fungi involved in root symbioses are often shared between

The first comprehensive multilocus phylogeny of the lichenized genus Micarea (Ectolechiaceae, Ascomycota)

TAXON, Volume 75, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Micarea is a crustose cosmopolitan lichen genus that belongs to the euascomycete class Lecanoromycetes. Recent molecular phylogenies on the genus based on one to three loci have mostly focused on Micarea s.str., including the type species M. prasina, and suggested that Micarea s.l. is paraphyletic.

Various Fungi Colonising Fresh Litter During Winter Inhibit Seed Germination of Picea jezoensis

Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
The community of soil‐borne fungal pathogens infecting Picea jezoensis seeds differs among the sites with different altitudes. ABSTRACT Natural regeneration of Picea jezoensis, one of the dominant conifer species in northern Japan, is severely inhibited by soil‐borne pathogens.

Complete mitochondrial genome of plant pathogen Monilinia fructicola (Sclerotiniaceae, Helotiales)

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019
Monilinia fructicola is a plant pathogenic fungus usually causing brown rot in the stone fruit crops. Here, the complete mitochondrial genome of M. fructicola is first reported, and the length of the circular genome was 163,790 bp and the content of GC ...

A new species of Stamnaria (Leotiomycetes, Helotiales) from Western Siberia

MycoKeys, 2018
A new species of Stamnaria is described based on morphology and molecular data from a collection made in West Siberia. Stamnaria yugrana is differentiated by lanceolate, strongly protruding paraphyses and comparatively narrow, fusoid-clavate ascospores ...

Soil pH modulates microbial nitrogen allocation in soil via compositional and metabolic shifts across forests in Japan

iMetaOmics, Volume 2, Issue 4, December 2025.
This study reveals how soil pH regulates microbial N allocation in forest soils across Japan. We show that microbial abundance controls the overall rate of N cycling, while microbial composition and metabolic potential determine whether ammonium is released or retained.

Winning by Losing: Exploiting Modified Plant Susceptibility Genes to Counteract Necrotrophic Fungal Pathogens

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 12, Page 5710-5727, December 2025.
ABSTRACT The infection of plants by pathogens is an intricate process in which genes from both the host and pathogen contribute to the infection process. Susceptibility (S) genes have been defined as plant genes that encode functions that are exploited by pathogens to invade and reproduce in host plants. Mutations in S‐genes therefore result in reduced

Drought legacy effects on plant growth and plant–soil feedback are mediated by soil microbial communities independently of root exudates and root litter

Journal of Ecology, Volume 113, Issue 11, Page 3293-3312, November 2025.
The results show that drought indirectly restricts plant growth, which is not mediated by root exudates or root litter, but through altering microbial biomass and community composition. These findings suggest that plant recovery from extreme drought is obstructed by persistent changes in soil microbial communities.
