Journal ArticleDOI

Global diversity and geography of soil fungi

Leho Tedersoo, +57 more
- 28 Nov 2014 - 
TL;DR: Diversity of most fungal groups peaked in tropical ecosystems, but ectomycorrhizal fungi and several fungal classes were most diverse in temperate or boreal ecosystems, and manyfungal groups exhibited distinct preferences for specific edaphic conditions (such as pH, calcium, or phosphorus).
Journal ArticleDOI

Mycobiome diversity: high-throughput sequencing and identification of fungi.

TL;DR: An overview and practical recommendations for aspects of HTS studies ranging from sampling and laboratory practices to data processing and analysis are provided, and advice for leveraging next-generation technologies to explore mycobiome diversity in different habitats is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

Shotgun metagenomes and multiple primer pair-barcode combinations of amplicons reveal biases in metabarcoding analyses of fungi

TL;DR: Overall, the metagenomics data set recovered a similar taxonomic overview, but resulted in much lower fungal rDNA sequencing depth, inability to infer OTUs, and high levels of bias in fungal community ecology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tree diversity and species identity effects on soil fungi, protists and animals are context dependent

TL;DR: This work developed a DNA metabarcoding approach to identify the major eukaryote groups directly from soil with roughly species-level resolution and revealed that on a local scale, soil resources and tree species have stronger effect on diversity of soil biota than tree species richness per se.
