European Journal of Taxonomy
Exploration of macrofungi in the Jammu and Kashmir regions, India, led to the discovery of two novel species, described herein as Lactarius indohirtipes sp. nov. and L. sharmai sp. nov.

Ectomycorrhizal fungi and root water uptake respond independently to water availability

Oikos, Volume 2025, Issue 11, November 2025.
Temperate forests on their warm and dry distribution limits are expected to be most vulnerable to reductions in water availability. This prediction is mostly based on studies assessing single forest functions, mainly growth. Water and nutrient cycling are functions that rely on tree roots and their symbiotic association with ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi.

Mycophagy in Primates of the Issa Valley, Tanzania

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
Mushroom consumption in Issa Valley primates varies by species and availability. Chimpanzees and red‐tailed monkeys use mushrooms as a fallback food, while baboons prefer them year‐round. Our study highlights the ecological and evolutionary significance of mycophagy in primates.

Soil inoculation improves tree seedling growth in substrates containing bitumen, but the effect varies by species and inoculum source

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 10, Page 2623-2635, October 2025.
Soil inoculation improved tree seedling growth in some substrates containing bitumen, but the effect varied by species and inoculum source. Inoculum from extreme environments, such as the abandoned ore pile, may harbour microbes effective in supporting pine seedling growth in soils with residual hydrocarbons.

Ectomycorrhizal fungal community succession and fragmentation across forest edges nearly three decades postharvest

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 5, Page 1510-1523, September 2025.
Forest management for wood products involves the conversion of primary forests to younger plantations. This has an immediate impact on biota such as ectomycorrhizal fungi, a diverse symbiotic fungal community. Alternatives to large clearcuts may be one way to mitigate harvesting effects.

Home range size, habitat selection, and mycophagy of sympatric North American flying squirrels

Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract The northern flying squirrel (Glaucomys sabrinus) is a mycophagous specialist (i.e., having a fungi‐dominated diet) which might be displaced following northward range expansion by the congeneric southern flying squirrel (Glaucomys volans). Loss of the northern flying squirrel could, in turn, limit fungi spore dispersal in forest communities ...

Protein Coding Low‐Copy rpb2 and ef1‐α Regions Are Viable Fungal Metabarcoding DNA Markers Which Can Supplement ITS for Better Accuracy

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 4, April 2025.
The study uses prepared mock communities of three unrelated basidiomycete lineages, each containing carefully selected closely related species. Performance of the generally used fungal barcoding region ITS nrDNA is compared with two low‐copy protein coding regions (rpb2 and tef1a).

Orchid Mycorrhizal Communities Associated With Orchis italica Are Shaped by Ecological Factors and Geographical Gradients

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 3, Page 544-557, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim The influence of mutualists on plant distributions is only beginning to be understood. Orchids depend on orchid mycorrhizal (OrM) fungi to germinate, yet the distribution of OrM fungi and how they vary according to both abiotic and biotic factors is unclear.
