Fungi are key players in vital ecosystem services, spanning carbon cycling, decomposition, symbiotic associations with cultivated and wild plants pathogenicity. The high importance of fungi processes contrasts the incompleteness our understanding patterns fungal biogeography environmental factors that drive those patterns. To reduce this gap knowledge, we collected validated data published on composition soil communities terrestrial environments including plant-associated habitats made them...
Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi are crucial mutualistic symbionts of the majority plant species, with essential roles in nutrient uptake and stress mitigation. The importance AM ecosystems contrasts our limited understanding patterns fungal biogeography environmental factors that drive those patterns. This article presents a release newly developed global dataset (GlobalAMFungi database, https://globalamfungi.com) aims to reduce this knowledge gap. It contains almost 50 million...
Summary Gradients in species diversity across elevations and latitudes have fascinated biologists for decades. While these gradients been well documented macroorganisms, there is limited consensus about their universality, shape drivers microorganisms, such as fungi, despite the importance of fungal ecosystem functions services. We conducted a comprehensive survey richness forests 17 elevational transects along latitudinal gradient covering continental scale Europe. Diversity patterns...
Fine woody debris (FWD) represents the majority of deadwood stock in managed forests and serves as an important biodiversity hotspot refuge for many organisms, including fungi. Wood decomposition forests, representing input nutrients into forest soils, is mainly driven by fungal communities that undergo continuous changes during decomposition. However, while assembly processes long-lasting coarse have been repeatedly explored, similar information more ephemeral habitat fine missing. Here, we...
After wildfires in Mediterranean ecosystems, ruderal mosses are pioneer species, stabilizing the soil surface previous to establishment of vascular vegetation. However, little is known about implication moss biocrusts for recovery and resilience soils early post-fire stages semi-arid areas. Therefore, we studied effects burgeoning biocrust on physicochemical biochemical properties diversity composition microbial communities after a moderate-to-high wildfire severity. Seven months wildfire,...
This review by a multidisciplinary team maps out key components and emerging connections within microbial ecology, ecophysiology, plant genetics. approach aims to develop better understanding of plant–microbe interactions in the rhizosphere. It is placed intellectual landscape agroecology. For this purpose, ecology concepts are blended with ecophysiology understand basis interactions. Moreover, genetic mapping factors or "loci" controlling these introduced linkage analysis genome-wide...
Deadwood represents an important carbon stock and contributes to climate change mitigation. Wood decomposition is mainly driven by fungal communities. Their composition known during decomposition, but it unclear how environmental factors such as wood chemistry affect these successional patterns through their effects on dominant taxa. We analysed the deadwood of Fagus sylvatica Abies alba across a succession series >40 years in natural fir-beech forest Czech Republic describe changes...
Abstract Background Grasslands provide fundamental ecosystem services that are supported by their plant diversity. However, the importance of taxonomic diversity for other taxa in grasslands remains poorly understood. Here, we studied associations between communities, soil chemistry and microbiome a wooded meadow Čertoryje (White Carpathians, Czech Republic), European hotspot species Results High was associated with treeless grassland areas high primary productivity contents nitrogen organic...
Mulches are highly effective in mitigating the risk of erosion generated after wildfires fire-prone ecosystems. Despite being a technique commonly used, it remains completely unexplored how mulches interact with positive effects emergent moss biocrust on recovery and resilience soils their microbial communities. For this purpose, wood-based mulch were assayed soil stability moisture improvement, nutrient inputs, response biomass, activity, composition, diversity. Soils studied one year wood...
Soil microorganisms play a key role in both plants nutrition and health. Their relation with plant varies from mutualism to parasitism, according the balance of costs benefits for two partners interaction. These interactions involved liberation organic compounds via rhizodeposition. Modification atmospheric CO2 concentration may affect rhizodeposition as consequence trophic that bind microorganisms. Positive effect elevated on are rather well known but consequences micoorganisms their still...
