Environmental stress is increasing worldwide, yet we lack a clear picture of how stress
disrupts the stability of microbial communities and the ecosystem services they provide …

Dispersal of mycorrhizal fungi via animals and the importance for the interacting partners' life
history as well as for ecosystems is an understudied topic. In this review, we describe the …

Many stakeholders, from governments to civil society to businesses, lack the data they need
to make informed decisions on biodiversity, jeopardising efforts to conserve, restore and …

The characterization of biodiversity is a crucial element of ecological investigations as well
as environmental assessment and monitoring activities. Increasingly, amplicon-based …

Animals are often the primary dispersers of seeds and fungal spores. Specialist species that
consume fruits or fungal fruiting bodies (sporocarps) as their main food source are thought to …

Dispersal is a key process that impacts population dynamics and structures biotic
communities. Dispersal limitation influences the assembly of plant and microbial …

Soil fungi play an important role in promoting nutrient cycling and maintaining ecosystem
stability. Yet, there has been little understanding of how fungal co-occurrence networks differ …

Mycorrhizal fungi are very diverse, including those that produce truffle-like fruiting bodies.
Truffle-like fungi are hypogeous and sequestrate (produced below-ground, with an enclosed …

Soil organic carbon (SOC) supports essential functions in terrestrial biomes and global
biogeochemical cycles, and tropical tree plantations are often called upon to reverse …

The temperate forests of Australia support a high diversity of hypogeous fungi and a wide
variety of mycophagous mammals, yet many mammal-fungal relationships are still poorly …
