Other claims from this paper (8)
- Association Ectomycorrhizal network complexity in Cistus albidus, Quercus faginea and Q. ilex relied on habitat characteristics and seasonality.
- Association Ectomycorrhizal network complexity was linked to dominant ECM fungal lineages across habitats.
- Association Soil enzymatic activities were habitat-dependent in the ECM host forests.
- Association Soil enzymatic activities were driven by host plant identity.
- Association Soil enzymatic activities were driven by ECM fungi with reduced structuring roles in the co-occurrence network.
- Association Increased network complexity was not related to greater soil functionality.
- Mechanism Functional redundancy might be operating in Mediterranean forest soils.
- Observation Structural and functional roles of ECM fungi are differentiated.
