Other claims from this paper (13)
- Observation The EMF community included Cortinarius, Piloderma, Russula and Tricholoma.
- Observation A total of 238 EMF species were observed.
- Observation Eighty-six EMF species were detected once.
- Observation Mean plot to total richness ratio was 0.35.
- Observation Estimated community stochasticity was 31% dissimilarity.
- Observation Distance decay was nonlinear, breaking at 2.6 km.
- Observation After the break beta diversity was largely unchanged.
- Method / resource The cumulative Weibull sigmoid model fit species-area curves best.
- Observation The estimated species-area asymptote was 367 species at about 50 ha.
- Observation Nonparametric gamma diversity was estimated at 342–362 species.
- Observation Several EMF species were considered likely Pacific Northwest endemics.
- Mechanism Niche and neutral processes were inferred to influence EMF composition.
- Recommendation A minimum 50 ha habitat threshold was inferred for capturing gamma diversity.
