Teresa Telleria,Michael Weiss,Karl-Henrik Larsson +45 more
TL;DR: All fungal species represented by at least two ITS sequences in the international nucleotide sequence databases are now given a unique, stable name of the accession number type, and the term ‘species hypothesis’ (SH) is introduced for the taxa discovered in clustering on different similarity thresholds.
Journal ArticleDOI
A first comprehensive census of fungi in soil reveals both hyperdiversity and fine-scale niche partitioning
D. Lee Taylor,Teresa N. Hollingsworth,Jack W. McFarland,Niall J. Lennon,Chad Nusbaum,Roger W. Ruess +5 more
TL;DR: This work achieves the first exhaustive enumeration of fungi in soil, recording 1002 taxa in this system, and shows that the fungus-to-plant ratio in Picea mariana forest soils from interior Alaska is at least 17:1 and is regionally stable.
Journal ArticleDOI
Accurate Estimation of Fungal Diversity and Abundance through Improved Lineage-Specific Primers Optimized for Illumina Amplicon Sequencing
D. Lee Taylor,William A. Walters,Niall J. Lennon,James Bochicchio,Andrew Krohn,J. Gregory Caporaso,Taina Pennanen +6 more
TL;DR: Improved methods for high-throughput Illumina sequencing of the species-diagnostic fungal ribosomal marker gene that improve the accuracy of richness and abundance estimates are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Internal transcribed spacer primers and sequences for improved characterization of basidiomycetous orchid mycorrhizas
TL;DR: Broad-spectrum basidiomycete internal transcribed spacer (ITS) primers that do not exclude most known Tulasnellaceae are presented and detailed phylogenetic analyses reveal some inconsistencies in species concepts in these taxonomically challenging resupinate basidiomers, but also help to place several sequences from environmental samples.
Journal ArticleDOI
Host Specificity in Ectomycorrhizal Communities: What Do the Exceptions Tell Us?
TL;DR: The idea that specialist fungi may help their hosts compete in complex ecosystems by reducing facultative epiparasitism by other plants is reexamine, and an alternative hypothesis for the observed pattern is suggested.
