The paper maps the distribution of mycorrhizal fungal taxa and forecasts future range shifts, finding that ectomycorrhizal fungi have smaller niches and will experience greater range loss under climate change.

The paper investigates how diverse root fungal endophytes affect plant nutrient acquisition by testing their impact on nitrogen and phosphorus uptake in switchgrass under different nutrient treatments.

This study identifies direct and diffuse cross-kingdom interactions between fungi and bacteria in plant microbiomes, showing their significant contribution to community structure.

The paper examines wheat seed fungal community structure across North Carolina's geographic gradient, finding stable mycobiome composition across cultivars and years.
