Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Ectomycorrhizal fungi (EcMF) modulate litter decomposition and facilitate nutrient acquisition through the soil–mycorrhiza–plant pathway. Although litter chemistry has been considered an important factor affecting litter decomposition, how it regulates EcMF‐induced ...

PLoS ONE, 2016 While it is generally acknowledged that orchid species rely on mycorrhizal fungi for completion of their life cycle, little is yet known about how mycorrhizal fungal diversity and community composition vary within and between closely related orchid taxa.

Plant functional groups and root traits are linked to exudation rates of mature temperate trees
Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Root exudation affects soil biogeochemistry profoundly, yet it is rarely quantified in mature, field‐grown trees and its controls are poorly understood. We measured rates of carbon (C) exudation in 11 tree species that exhibit divergent root traits, including ...

Genetic processes in arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2005 Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi (Glomeromycota) colonize roots of the majority of land plants and facilitate their mineral nutrient uptake. Consequently, AM fungi play an important role in terrestrial ecosystems and are becoming a component of sustainable land management practices. The absence of sexual reproductive structures in modern Glomeromycota
