Summary The benefits of the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis between plants and fungi are modulated by functional characteristics both partners. However, it is unknown to what extent functionally distinct groups naturally associate with different AM fungi. We reanalysed 14 high‐throughput sequencing data sets describing fungal communities associating plant individuals (2427) belonging 297 species. examined how root‐associating varied growth forms, photosynthetic pathways, CSR...

In the era of Big Data, Latin American countries and biomes remain underrepresented. To remediate this issue, promoting repositories for biodiversity data focused on America is a main priority. VegAndes -Dpt vegetation database highlands (GIVD: SA-00-005), novel dataset georeferenced standardized information vascular pants in region. The compiles 5,340 plots sampled above montane treeline below permanent snowline 11 spanning over seven decades. currently encompasses 5,804 taxon names,...

Abstract Aims Mycorrhizal symbiosis influences the performance of plant individuals. However, its impact on communities is less well understood. We used a database mycorrhizal traits and investigated how community mycorrhization — prevalence in related to productivity diversity. analysed: (a) soil fertility affects mycorrhization; (b) diversity are (c) whether directly mediates relationships between Location Twenty‐nine semi‐natural grasslands south Estonia, representing steep gradient...

Abstract The tropicalpine páramo stands out as a unique biodiversity hotspot located in the northern Andes. Over last decades, plants and animals have been increasingly studied, yet critical knowledge gap remains on their microbial ecology. Given crucial importance of mycorrhiza structural functional communities, our study aimed to explore geographic distribution Colombian páramos. Specifically, we used information about host proxy modelled current unravel spatial patterns related...
