The functioning of rhizosphere biota in wetlands–a review
A Neori, M Agami - Wetlands, 2017 - Springer
Anoxia and harmful metabolites are two of several particularities that characterize wetland
soils and make their study so fascinating. Unique physiological and anatomical adaptations …

Testate amoebae and nutrient cycling with particular reference to soils
DM Wilkinson, EAD Mitchell - Geomicrobiology Journal, 2010 - Taylor & Francis
We asked the following question: Is the lack of attention given to testate amoebae, and other
protists, in studies of nutrient cycling justified by their relative unimportance or are we …

Novel root-fungus symbiosis in Ericaceae: sheathed ericoid mycorrhiza formed by a hitherto undescribed basidiomycete with affinities to Trechisporales
Ericaceae (the heath family) are widely distributed calcifuges inhabiting soils with inherently
poor nutrient status. Ericaceae overcome nutrient limitation through symbiosis with ericoid …

Communities of Cultivable Root Mycobionts of the Seagrass Posidonia oceanica in the Northwest Mediterranean Sea Are Dominated by a Hitherto Undescribed …
Seagrasses, a small group of submerged marine macrophytes, were reported to lack

[HTML][HTML] Effects of inoculating Lachnum and Cadophora isolates on the growth of Vaccinium corymbosum
C Bizabani, J Dames - Microbiological Research, 2015 - Elsevier
The roots of ericaceous plants harbour a diversity of fungal taxa, which confer eco-
physiological benefits to the host. Some of the fungi have been established to form ericoid …

Statistical analysis of co-occurrence patterns in microbial presence-absence datasets
Drawing on a long history in macroecology, correlation analysis of microbiome datasets is
becoming a common practice for identifying relationships or shared ecological niches …

Testate amoebae and nutrient cycling: peering into the black box of soil ecology
DM Wilkinson - Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2008 - cell.com
In some areas of ecology and evolution, such as the behavioural ecology of many well-
studied bird species, it is increasingly difficult to make surprising new discoveries. However …
