Context‐dependent effects of below‐ground carbon transfer: Limited benefits from sunlit pines to shaded oaks

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 6, Page 1369-1383, June 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Despite gaining significant attention in recent years, it remains unclear whether mycorrhizal fungi distribute meaningful amounts of resources among trees in ways that increase the fitness of the receiving trees. To investigate this, we used pairs of shaded and unshaded

In Vitro Culture and Symbiotic Relationships of Paphiopedilum Niveum, Taeniophyllum Obtusum and Vanda Hookeriana with Their Associated Fungi [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
In vitro cultures of three orchid species, namely, Paphiopedilum niveum, Taeniophyllum obtusum and Yanda hookeriana, were initiated from different parts of the plants.

Characterization and taxonomic placement of Rhizoctonia--like endophytes from orchid roots [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Twenty-one Rhizoctoniu-like fungal strains were isolated from the roots of four terrestrial orchid species from various locations in Hong Kong. The cultural morpholon, uclear number of the hyphal cell, pore ultrastructure, and RAPD and CAPS analyses of ...

Patterns of Functional Diversity, Species Diversity, and Endemicity Driven by Elevation and Topographic Complexity in a Mediterranean Mountain Refuge

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2025.
Within the scope of our study, we modeled and mapped the relationships between functional diversity (Rao's Q), alpha species diversity, and endemism with topographic and climatic factors in a mountainous refugial area encompassing all Mediterranean vegetation strata.

Role of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in global sustainable development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Mycorrhizal symbiosis is a highly evolved mutually beneficial relationship that exists between Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF) and most of the vascular plants.

The Increased Environmental Niche of Dual‐Mycorrhizal Woody Species

open access: yesEcology Letters, Volume 28, Issue 5, May 2025.
Abiotic factors influence the global distribution of mycorrhizal host plants (ectomycorrhizal fungi and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi), raising the possibility that dual associations with both mycorrhizal types may enhance species' distribution range and environmental niche space.

Adaptive sequence evolution is driven by biotic stress in a pair of orchid species (Dactylorhiza) with distinct ecological optima [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
This work was funded by an Austrian Science Fund (FWF) project (Y661-B16) awarded to OP and a Marie Curie IEF fellowship (PERG-GA-2011-299608-TRANSADAPTATION) to FB.The orchid family is the largest in the angiosperms, but little is known about the ...

A Friendly Relationship between Endophytic Fungi and Medicinal Plants: A Systematic Review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Endophytic fungi or endophytes exist widely inside the healthy tissues of living plants, and are important components of plant micro-ecosystems. Over the long period of evolution, some co-existing endophytes and their host plants have established a ...

Native and exotic Juglans nigra seedlings recruit distinct mycobiomes that differentiate with emergent disease variation

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract Under global change, the transformation of landscapes and anthropogenic movement of organisms lead to novel biotic interactions that affect ecosystem health. A prior field‐based metabarcoding survey revealed that Juglans nigra harbors a novel, low‐diversity mycobiome outside of its native range that may contribute to the severity of thousand ...

Productivity, moisture and competition—Habitat conditions affecting population viability of the wet grassland orchid Dactylorhiza majalis under conservation‐oriented management

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 4, Page 970-985, April 2025.
Our results suggest that adjusting regular conservation‐oriented management may be beneficial for many wet grassland sites. Observing few but large D. majalis individuals may serve as a warning sign for deteriorating site conditions that can help prioritise conservation efforts to stabilise populations early on.
