Other claims from this paper (10)
- Association Fungal colonization tended to be greater in spring and summer.
- Observation Most associated fungi were ectomycorrhizal taxa.
- Observation Russula species accounted for 84% of identified fungi.
- Association Mycorrhizal colonization tended to be higher in shade.
- Association Russula frequency tended to be higher in shade.
- Observation Pyrola japonica δ13C and δ15N values were reported significantly higher than autotrophic plants.
- Observation About half the carbon was inferred to come from mycorrhizal fungi.
- Association Both isotope values correlated negatively with light availability.
- Association The authors inferred higher heterotrophy under shaded conditions.
- Observation The authors suggested increased heterotrophy evolved in the Pyrola/Orthilia clade.
