On the origin of feces: Fungal diversity, distribution, and conservation implications from feces of small mammals

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, 2022
Fungi are highly diverse, but only a small fraction of the total estimated species have been characterized. Often, the extent of diversity and distribution of fungal communities is difficult or near impossible to assess due to the fact that many fungi ...

Biodiversity of Hypogeous Fungi in Basilicata [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
During the last two decades, systematic studies were carried out on biodiversity of hypogeous fungi in forestry territories of the two Basilicata (southern Italy) provinces, Matera and Potenza. Identification of fungus taxa found in the region was commonly accomplished on the basis of macro- and microscopic features, and only in a few instances ...

Modeling mammal response to fire based on species’ traits

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 4, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Fire has shaped ecological communities worldwide for millennia, but impacts of fire on individual species are often poorly understood. We performed a meta‐analysis to predict which traits, habitat, or study variables and fire characteristics affect how mammal species respond to fire.

Temporal dynamics of soil fungi in a pyrodiverse dry‐sclerophyll forest

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 32, Issue 15, Page 4181-4198, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Fire is a major evolutionary and ecological driver that shapes biodiversity in forests. While above‐ground community responses to fire have been well‐documented, those below‐ground are much less understood. However, below‐ground communities, including fungi, play key roles in forests and facilitate the recovery of other organisms after fire ...

The importance of botanic gardens for global change research—New insights into Cambridge's hidden truffle kingdom

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 5, Issue 3, Page 329-334, May 2023., 2023
Botanic gardens offer unique opportunities for unravelling responses of plant life to climate change. Despite investigations into their aboveground sphere, the belowground realm is usually neglected. Cambridge University Botanic Garden now illuminates the hidden world of one of the most sought‐after culinary delicacies—the Burgundy truffle.
