Summary Ectomycorrhizal fungi are thought to have a key role in mobilizing organic nitrogen that is trapped soil matter ( SOM ). However, the extent which ectomycorrhizal decompose and mechanism by they do so remain unclear, considering lost many genes encoding lignocellulose‐degrading enzymes present their saprotrophic ancestors. Spectroscopic analyses transcriptome profiling were used examine mechanisms five species of fungi, representing at least four origins symbiosis, extracted from...
Many trees form ectomycorrhizal symbiosis with fungi. During symbiosis, the tree roots supply sugar to fungi in exchange for nitrogen, and this process is critical nitrogen carbon cycles forest ecosystems. However, extents which can liberate modify soil organic matter mechanisms by they do so remain unclear since have lost many enzymes litter decomposition that were present their free-living, saprotrophic ancestors. Using time-series spectroscopy transcriptomics, we examined ability of two...
Ectomycorrhizal fungi play a key role in mobilizing nutrients embedded recalcitrant organic matter complexes, thereby increasing nutrient accessibility to the host plant. Recent studies have shown that during assimilation of nutrients, ectomycorrhizal fungus Paxillus involutus decomposes using an oxidative mechanism involving Fenton chemistry (Fe(2+) + H2O2 H(+) → Fe(3+) ˙OH H2O), similar brown rot wood-decaying fungi. In such fungi, secreted metabolites are one components drive one-electron...
Abstract Increased tourist activity and recreational use of wilderness other protected areas has endangered zones high environmental value. The aim this work was to evaluate the effects trampling intensity (low, trails untrampled trails) distance from (on trails, at 10 20 m on vegetation, chemical, physical microbiological properties a soil in Mediterranean mountain areas. Trail type trail significantly influenced several parameters. High showed lower values plant cover diversity vegetation...
Decomposition and transformation of organic matter (OM) in forest soils are conducted by the concomitant action saprotrophic mycorrhizal fungi. Here, we examine chemical changes OM after fungal colonization nitrogen fertilized unfertilized from a Norway spruce forest. Sand-filled bags amended with composted maize leaves were placed soil harvested 17 months. Infrared near edge X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopies used to study OM. Fungal community composition was also evaluated. The...
A 9-month lab experiment was carried out with three different amendments (vine pruning wastes, PW; composted vine cPW; and sewage sludge, SS) added at rates (90, 180, 240 t ha−1, dry weight) in order to test whether the type or quantity of applied a semiarid, degraded soil determined Corg accumulation its particle-size fractions (coarse sand, 200–2,000 µm; fine 63–200 silt, 2–63 clay, 0.1–2 µm). All amendments, independently their C/N ratios, resulted similar content coarse sand silt-sized...
