Fungi are a highly diverse group of heterotrophic eukaryotes characterized by the absence
of phagotrophy and the presence of a chitinous cell wall. While unicellular fungi are far from …

Humans have dramatically increased atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition globally. At the
coarsest resolution, N deposition is correlated with shifts from ectomycorrhizal (EcM) to …

Most trees form symbioses with ectomycorrhizal fungi (EMF) which influence access to
growth-limiting soil resources. Mesocosm experiments repeatedly show that EMF species …

Explaining the large-scale diversity of soil organisms that drive biogeochemical processes—
and their responses to environmental change—is critical. However, identifying consistent …

Trade-offs and synergies in the supply of forest ecosystem services are common but the
drivers of these relationships are poorly understood. To guide management that seeks to …

Aim Recent studies increasingly use statistical methods to infer biotic interactions from co‐
occurrence information at a large spatial scale. However, disentangling biotic interactions …

Fungal decomposition of soil organic matter depends on soil nitrogen (N) availability. This
ecosystem process is being jeopardized by changes in N inputs that have resulted from a …

Fires occur in most terrestrial ecosystems where they drive changes in the traits,
composition, and diversity of fungal communities. Fires range from rare, stand-replacing …

Plant growth is directly influenced by biotic and abiotic stress factors resulting from
environmental changes. Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) have become a …

We measured the influences of soil fertility and plant community composition on
Glomeromycota, and tested the prediction of the functional equilibrium hypothesis that …
