Other claims from this paper (5)
- Observation The same taxa occurred in mammal diets, with Mesophellia often dominant.
- Observation Eighty eight percent of root sample truffle like taxa were shared with the fungal specialist diet.
- Observation Fifty two percent of root sample truffle like taxa were shared with generalist mammal diets.
- Mechanism The authors suggest loss of fungal specialist mammals could reduce truffle like fungal diversity over time.
- Mechanism The authors suggest resulting ectomycorrhizal fungal communities could shift, with unknown plant impacts.
