Global synthesis of effects of plant species diversity on trophic groups and interactions

open access: yesNature Plants, 2020
Numerous studies have demonstrated that plant species diversity enhances ecosystem functioning in terrestrial ecosystems, including diversity effects on insects (herbivores, predators and parasitoids) and plants.

Truffle Microbiome Is Driven by Fruit Body Compartmentalization Rather than Soils Conditioned by Different Host Trees

open access: yesmSphere, 2021
Currently. the factors that drive the microbiome associated with truffles, the most highly prized fungi in the world, are largely unknown. We demonstrate for the first time here that truffle microbiome composition is strongly driven by associated ...

Unrecorded Fungi Isolated from Rhizosphere Soil of Fallopia sachalinensis in Dokdo Islands [PDF]

open access: yes한국균학회지, 2023
We isolated fungi from the rhizosphere of Fallopia sachalinensis in Dokdo islands. Morphological and molecular characters, based on the internal transcribed spacer (ITS), and partial large subunit (LSU) or partial beta-tubulin genes, were used to ...
