Cultivable fungal diversity in two karstic caves in Italy: under-investigated habitats as source of putative novel taxa

open access: yesScientific Reports
Microbial diversity of caves is largely understudied and its possible applications are still unknown. Autochthonous fungi, in particular, may have the potential to biomineralize metals and may be used as promising agents for bioremediation of polluted ...

Plant functional diversity regulates the composition and diversity of soil microbial communities in temperate grasslands of northern China

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 9, Page 2314-2326, September 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plant communities can influence the structure of soil microbial communities through the combined effects of the quality and quantity of plant‐derived resources. However, the specific mechanisms underlying these effects remain poorly understood. We sampled soil bacterial

Co‐phylogenetic constraints on host breadth within an emerging fungal pathogen complex of global concern

open access: yesEcological Monographs, Volume 95, Issue 3, August 2025.
Abstract Emerging fungal infectious diseases constitute the largest pathogen threat to plants. However, the factors influencing fungal‐plant interactions, host shifts, and the emergence of pathogens on a novel host are still not well understood. Evolutionary relationships among hosts appear to be important, with closely related hosts often sharing ...

Effects of Growth Media on the Diversity of Culturable Fungi from Lichens

open access: yesMolecules, 2017
Microscopic and molecular studies suggest that lichen symbioses contain a plethora of associated fungi. These are potential producers of novel bioactive compounds, but strains isolated on standard media usually represent only a minor subset of these ...

Uncovering the Role of Land Use Intensity in Shaping Forest and Grassland‐Specific Soil Fungal Communities

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2025.
We analysed soil fungal diversity in 300 forest and grassland plots across Germany, assessing land use intensity (LUI) effects. Forests showed stronger soil condition variation, while grasslands exhibited larger diversity shifts. We identified key fungal indicator species and trophic guilds linked to LUI, revealing their ecosystem roles.

First comprehensive phylogenetic analysis of the genus Erysiphe (Erysiphales, Erysiphaceae) II: the Uncinula lineage [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Phylogenetic relationships of the Uncinula lineage, which is the basal group in the genus Erysiphe, were investigated with 167 sequences of nuc ITS1-5. 8S-ITS2 and the 28S rDNA regions.

The Functional Role of Fungi and Bacteria in Sulfur Cycling During Kelp (Ecklonia Radiata) Degradation: Unconventional Use of PiCrust2

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 4, August 2025.
The microbial remineralization of Ecklonia radiata produces substantial amounts of climate‐relevant compounds, including dimethylsulfoniopropionate, carbon, sulphur and alkalinity. While bacterial metabolic pathways are well‐characterised and relatively predictable, fungal contributions remain underexplored due to the lack of metabolic predictive tools

Sordariomycetes, Kelompok Jamur Yang Paling Banyak Terisolasi Dari Daun Jarum Pinus Radiata Di Australia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Endophytes fungi have been extensively studied in conifer needles involving culture dependent methods, however little number have been conducted in Pinus radiata and no record have been reported from Tasmania. This study aimed to identify the major group

Soil microbial communities in restored and unrestored coastal dune ecosystems in California [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Most restoration projects involving invasive plant eradication tend to focus on plant removal with little consideration given to how these invasives change soil microbial communities.
