e0“Co-occurrence networks were inferred from ECM root tips of Cistus albidus, Quercus faginea and Q. ilex on a regional scale, in Mediterranean mixed forests”
e1“Network complexity relied on habitat characteristics and seasonality, and it was linked to different dominant ECM fungal lineages across habitats”

Other claims from this paper (8)
- 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.
- Observation ECM fungal co-occurrence network structure and functioning were highly context-dependent.
- 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.
