Arbuscular mycorrhiza in the urban jungle: Glomeromycotina communities of the dominant city tree across Amsterdam

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Trees in cities provide a great number of benefits to people and nature, but they are challenged by harsh conditions. Trees rely on helpful fungi in their roots to get essential nutrients from the soil, but we do not know which of these fungi are resistant to city landscapes.

Free Volatile Compounds as Chemophenetic Markers—Comparison with ITS2 and ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 Sequence Data for 18 Species of the Genus Veronica

open access: yesHorticulturae, 2023
(1) Background: The purpose of this study was to compare the free volatile compounds of 18 Veronica species (Plantaginaceae), as previously analyzed by gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry, with their DNA sequences for internal transcribed spacers ITS2 and ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 of the nuclear ribosomal DNA.

Survival of a potential bacterial biocontrol agent in the soil and its impact on microbial communities

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
In soil microcosms, the candidate Bacillus persisted ≥6 months and caused modest community shifts whose transience and magnitude were soil dependent. Abstract BACKGROUND Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is a major crop pathogen commonly managed using fungicides.

Amazonian malaria vector anopheline relationships interpreted from ITS2 rDNA sequences [PDF]

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, 2005
Abstract.  Species identification of anopheline mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) can be problematic because many of them belong to complexes of morphologically similar species, often with contrasted ecology, behaviour and vectorial importance.

Necromass chemistry drives the functional diversity of the necrobiome, resulting in microbe–organic matter feedbacks

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract In temperate European forests, soil fungal communities, dominated by saprotrophic and ectomycorrhizal (ECM) species, represent almost 25% of soil organic carbon (C) in the soil.

Simultaneous Analysis of Bacterial and Fungal Communities in Oral Samples from Intubated Patients in Intensive Care Unit

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2023
Intubated patients in intensive care units (ICUs) too frequently contract ventilator-associated pneumonia or Candida infections. Oropharyngeal microbes are believed to play an important etiologic role.

Generation cycles in experimental populations of a multivoltine insect

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Although theory suggests various mechanisms by which environmental and ecological factors may drive generational fluctuations, our field‐cage experiment is the first to demonstrate how internal dynamics and external disturbances jointly produce synchronised, large‐scale outbreak cycles.

Compensatory Base Changes and Varying Phylogenetic Effects on Angiosperm ITS2 Genetic Distances

open access: yesPlants, 2022
A compensatory base change (CBC) that coevolves in the secondary structure of ribosomal internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS2) influences the estimation of genetic distance and thus challenges the phylogenetic use of this most popular genetic marker.

Effects of applying Trichoderma asperellum to rice (Oryza sativa) on phytobiome and plant responses

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.
We investigated the effect of dipping at transplanting or post‐transplanting spray application on the root‐associated microbiome or leaf epiphytes via amplicon sequencing, and on plant responses via RNA‐seq. Both root dipping and foliar application with Trichoderma asperellum spore suspension only had a limited impact on the leaf epiphytes and root ...

Tracing imprints of past climatic fluctuations and heterogeneous topography in Cynips quercusfolii (Hymenoptera: Cynipidae) in Turkey

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2019
Cynips quercusfolii is an oak gall wasp species distributed across the western Palearctic region. In this study, C. quercusfolii adults were used to investigate the possible effects of past climatic fluctuations and topography on the genetic structure of
