Forest tree microbiomes and associated fungal endophytes: Functional roles and impact on forest health
Terrestrial plants including forest trees are generally known to live in close association with
microbial organisms. The inherent features of this close association can be commensalism …

Negative effects on survival and performance of Norway spruce seedlings colonized by dark septate root endophytes are primarily isolate‐dependent
C Tellenbach, CR Grünig… - Environmental …, 2011 - Wiley Online Library
Root endophytes are common and genetically highly diverse suggesting important
ecological roles. Yet, relative to above‐ground endophytes, little is known about them. Dark …

No biogeographical pattern for a root‐associated fungal species complex
Aim The biogeography of microbes is poorly understood and there is an open debate
regarding if and how microbial biodiversity is structured. At the beginning of the 20th century …
