Detection of species within the Xerocomus subtomentosus complex in Europe using rDNA-ITS sequencesAndy F S Taylor
Department of Forest Mycology and Pathology, Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, Uppsala, Sweden
Mycol Res 110:276-87. 2006..Eight collections from North America were also included in the study, from which two taxa with a close affinity to X. ferrugineus were recognised...
ClassII peroxidase-encoding genes are present in a phylogenetically wide range of ectomycorrhizal fungiInga T M Bödeker
Department of Forest Mycology and Pathology, Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, Uppsala, Sweden
ISME J 3:1387-95. 2009..Production of extracellular peroxidases may provide ectomycorrhizal fungi with access to nitrogen sequestered in complex polyphenolic sources...
Xerocomus silwoodensis sp. nov., a new species within the European X. subtomentosus complexAndy F S Taylor
Department of Forest Mycology and Pathology, Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, P O Box 7026, Uppsala, Sweden
Mycol Res 111:403-8. 2007..silwoodensis should reduce the confusion associated with the identification of taxa within this species complex and lead to a more accurate assessment of the geographic distribution and conservation needs of the taxa...
Growth on nitrate and occurrence of nitrate reductase-encoding genes in a phylogenetically diverse range of ectomycorrhizal fungiCajsa M R Nygren
Department of Forest Mycology and Pathology, Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, PO Box 7026, SE 750 07 Uppsala, Sweden
New Phytol 180:875-89. 2008..The results demonstrate that the ability to utilize nitrate as an N source is widespread in ECM fungi, even in those fungi from boreal forests where the supply of nitrate may be very low...
Species composition of an ectomycorrhizal fungal community along a local nutrient gradient in a boreal forestJonas F Toljander
Department of Forest Mycology and Pathology, Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, Box 7026, SE-750 07, Uppsala, Sweden
New Phytol 170:873-83. 2006..The distinctive changes in soil and vegetation along the transect used in this study provided an exceptional opportunity to examine the local-scale impact of natural spatial heterogeneity on an ECM fungal community...
Missing links -delta13C anomalies between substrates and consumersAndy F S Taylor
Department of Forest Mycology and Pathology, Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, PO Box 7026, , SE 750 07 Uppsala, Sweden
New Phytol 177:845-7. 2008
Detection of extracellular protease activity in different species and genera of ectomycorrhizal fungiCajsa M R Nygren
Department of Forest Mycology and Pathology, Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, P O Box 7026, SE 750 07 Uppsala, Sweden
Mycorrhiza 17:241-8. 2007..The study supports the hypothesis that protease excretion is a widespread physiological trait in ECM fungi and that this ability is of considerable significance for nitrogen uptake in forest ecosystems...
Use of different nitrogen sources by the edible ectomycorrhizal mushroom Cantharellus cibariusJ Ignacio Rangel-Castro
Department of Forest Mycology and Pathology, Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences SLU, Box 7026, 750 07 Uppsala, Sweden
Mycorrhiza 12:131-7. 2002..cibarius in Europe are discussed. We highlight the potential ecological significance of bacteria associated with C. cibarius which may circumvent the need for fungal extracellular enzymes to access complex nitrogen sources...
Common mycelial networks: life-lines and radical addictionsAndy F S Taylor
Department of Forest Mycology and Pathology, Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, Sweden
New Phytol 169:6-8. 2006
Mycelial growth and substrate acidification of ectomycorrhizal fungi in response to different mineralsAnna Rosling
Department of Forest Mycology and Pathology, SLU, Uppsala, Sweden
FEMS Microbiol Ecol 47:31-7. 2004..Substrate acidification by M. galopus was constant irrespective of mycelial density and varied only according to mineral treatment, with higher substrate acidification on tri-calcium phosphate compared to the other minerals...
137Cs in the fungal compartment of Swedish forest soilsMykhaylo M Vinichuk
Department of General Ecology, University of Agriculture and Ecology, Stary Blvd. 7, Zhytomyr 10001, Ukraine
Sci Total Environ 323:243-51. 2004..In the peat soil only approximately 0.3% of the total (137)Cs inventory in soil was found in the fungal mycelium. The corresponding values for non-peat soil were 1.3, 1.8 and 1.9%...
Mycelial production, spread and root colonisation by the ectomycorrhizal fungi Hebeloma crustuliniforme and Paxillus involutus under elevated atmospheric CO2Petra M A Fransson
Department of Plant and Soil Science, School of Biological Sciences, Aberdeen University, Cruickshank Building, St Machar Drive, AB24 3UU, Aberdeen, Scotland
Mycorrhiza 15:25-31. 2005..crustuliniforme was significantly greater under elevated CO2 (up to a 3-fold increase was observed). Significantly lower concentrations and total amounts of N were found in plants exposed to elevated CO2...
UNITE: a database providing web-based methods for the molecular identification of ectomycorrhizal fungiUrmas Kõljalg
Institute of Botany, University of Tartu, 40 Lai Str, EE 51005 Tartu, Estonia
New Phytol 166:1063-8. 2005..It should be noted that the current version of UNITE is dedicated to the reliable identification of ECM fungi. The UNITE database is accessible through the URL http://unite.zbi.ee..
