Ectomycorrhizal diversity, taxon‐specific traits and root N uptake …
2023年5月25日 · Roots of forest trees are colonized by a diverse spectrum of ectomycorrhizal (EM) fungal species differing in their nitrogen (N) acquisition abilities. Here, we hypothesized that root N gain is the result of EM fungal diversity or related to taxon-specific traits for N uptake.
A single ectomycorrhizal plant root system includes a diverse …
2019年3月30日 · Here, we use the herbaceous perennial Bistorta vivipara to map the entire root system of an adult EcM plant and investigate the spatial structure of its root-associated fungi. All EcM root tips were sampled, mapped and identified using a direct PCR approach and Sanger sequencing of the internal transcribed spacer region.
Mycorrhizal C/N ratio determines plant-derived carbon and
2023年12月5日 · Here, we investigate fungal taxon-specific differences in naturally composed ectomycorrhizal (EM) communities for plant-derived carbon and nitrogen. After aboveground dual labeling of young beech...
Methods for identifying and measuring the diversity of ectomycorrhizal …
2023年4月19日 · Mycorrhizal symbiosis is categorized into discrete types based on the structural differences and the taxonomic position of involved plants and fungi. The main types of mycorrhiza include arbuscular, ericoid, orchid, monotropoid and ectomycorrhiza, the latter being the main focus of this review.
Unearthing the roots of ectomycorrhizal symbioses - Nature
2016年10月31日 · In this Review, we discuss recent genomic studies that have revealed the adaptations that seem to be fundamental to the convergent evolution of ectomycorrhizal fungi, including the loss of some...
Transcriptional Landscape of Ectomycorrhizal Fungi and Their …
2022年1月4日 · We demonstrate strong enrichment of N from nitrate or ammonium in the ectomycorrhizal roots by stable-isotope labeling. The relative abundance of the EMF members in the fungal community was correlated with their transcriptional abundances.
Ectomycorrhiza - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
The ectomycorrhizal root is characterized by the presence of three structural components: (a) a sheath or mantle of fungal tissue which encloses the root; (b) a labyrinthine inward growth of hyphae between the epidermal and cortical cells called the Hartig net; and (c) an outwardly growing system of hyphal elements which form essential ...
Ectomycorrhiza – Structure, Development and Functions
2022年12月24日 · The Ectomycorrhiza or ectomycorrhizal root are characterized by the presence of three structural components: a sheath or mantle of fungal tissue which encloses the root; a labyrinthine inward growth of hyphae between the epidermal …
Ectomycorrhizal identification in environmental samples of tree …
2014年5月27日 · Roots of forest trees are associated with various ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungal species that are involved in nutrient exchange between host plant and the soil compartment. The identification of ECM fungi in small environmental samples is difficult.
Ectomycorrhizal Mushrooms: Their Diversity, Ecology and …
2017年5月12日 · Ectomycorrhizal symbiosis is formed by a large number of plants and fungi. It is an association of fungal mycelia and roots of plants, mostly woody trees. Ectomycorrhiza are formed by fungi like Russula, Lactarius, Boletus, Cantharellus, etc. which are mostly common edible mushrooms.
