Much of Canada's terrestrial biodiversity is supported by boreal forests. Natural resource
development in boreal forests poses risks to this biodiversity. This paper reviews the …

The effects on the ectomycorrhizal fungal community of clearcut logging, which is used to
harvest millions of hectares of ectomycorrhizal forest annually, has been studied for a …

Fires are critical pathways of carbon loss from boreal forest soils, whereas microbial
communities form equally critical controls over carbon accumulation between fires. We used …

We examined potential large-scale controls over the distribution of arbuscular mycorrhizal
(AM) fungi and their host plants. Specifically, we tested the hypothesis that AM fungi should …

Fine root endophytes (FRE) are arbuscule-forming fungi presently considered as a single
species—Glomus tenue in the Glomeromycota (Glomeromycotina)—but probably belong …

Plant roots interact with a bewilderingly complex community of microbes, including root-
associated fungi that are essential for maintaining plant health. To improve understanding of …

Populus tremuloides Michx. is a tree species that have both arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM)
and ectomycorrhizal (EM) associations. The mechanisms underlying the coexistence of AM …

The objective of this study was to examine the effects of stand age and tree species
composition on the abundance, diversity, and community composition of epigeous fruit …

Summary 1 Mycorrhizae form a critical link between above‐ground plants and the soil
system by influencing plant nutrition, nutrient cycling and soil structure. Understanding how …

Viewing plant species by their mycorrhizal type has explained a range of ecosystem
processes. However, mycorrhizal type is confounded with plant phylogeny and the …
