Other claims from this paper (9)
- Observation Basidiomycota predominated the EcMF communities at 98.6%.
- Observation Lactarius, Tomentella and Inocybe consistently dominated the EcMF communities across all sites.
- Observation Community richness and diversity varied significantly among sites.
- Association Organic matter content significantly influenced the EcMF community composition.
- Association Site identity significantly influenced the EcMF community composition.
- Association Seasonality and other edaphic parameters had no detectable effect on the EcMF community composition.
- Observation Southern marginal populations of A. glutinosa harbour exceptionally rich and potentially unique EcMF assemblages.
- Mechanism Southern marginal populations of A. glutinosa have EcMF assemblages likely shaped by relative aridity, geographic isolation and host lineage divergence.
- Association The EcMF communities of North African Alnus show minimal overlap with those of European, Asian or American Alnus populations.
