Ectomycorrhizal fungi are influenced by ecoregion boundaries across Europe

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 33, Issue 6, June 2024.
Abstract Aim Ecoregions and the distance decay in community similarity are fundamental concepts in biogeography and conservation biology that are well supported across plants and animals, but not fungi. Here we test the relevance of these concepts for ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi in temperate and boreal regions. Location Europe.

Using DNA metabarcoding to separate natural and human provided food in wild boar diet at the northern distribution range of Europe

open access: yesWildlife Biology, Volume 2024, Issue 3, May 2024.
Wild boar Sus scrofa is increasing in numbers and extending its distribution across Europe and is difficult to control due to high reproductive potential. Dietary quality is a main determinant of wild boar population dynamics, and the extent to which they rely on human‐provided food provide a key to limit their distribution.

A case study on the application of spore sampling for the monitoring of macrofungi

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 24, Issue 4, May 2024.
Abstract Fungi play a vital role in ecosystem functioning, yet significant knowledge gaps persist in understanding their diversity and distribution leading to uncertainties about their threat status and extinction risk. This is partly owed to the difficulty of monitoring fungi using traditional fruiting body surveys.

Exploring the Phytochemical Compositions, Antioxidant Activity, and Nutritional Potentials of Edible and Medicinal Mushrooms

open access: yesInternational Journal of Microbiology, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Mushrooms are a valuable source of food and medicine that have been used for centuries in various cultures. They contain a variety of phytochemicals, such as terpenoids and polysaccharides, that exhibit diverse biological activities, such as antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, anticancer, antimicrobial, immunomodulatory, and antidiabetic effects.
