Coupling of plant and mycorrhizal fungal diversity: its occurrence, relevance, and possible implications under global change

Songlin Fei et al.

Summary: First principles predict that there is a relationship between plant and mycorrhizal fungal diversity, but this relationship is inconsistent on larger scales, likely due to different relationships between different mycorrhizal fungal guilds and plant diversity, scale dependency, and lack of coordinated sampling efforts. Understanding the coupling between plant and mycorrhizal fungal diversity across scales is important for predicting the ecosystem consequences of species gains and losses.

Elevated CO2, warming, N addition, and increased precipitation affect different aspects of the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal community

Junqiang Zheng et al.

Summary: The study investigated the interactive effects of elevated atmospheric CO2, nitrogen deposition, precipitation, and warming on arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi communities in a semiarid grassland using an open-top chamber field experiment. It was found that the interactions among these global change factors significantly affected AMF community structure and assembly processes.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal communities of pristine rainforests and adjacent sugarcane fields recruit from different species pools

Camilla Maciel Rabelo Pereira et al.

Summary: Deforestation and conversion into sugarcane fields in the Atlantic rainforest in Brazil pose a serious threat to local biodiversity, resulting in biotic homogenization. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) exhibit a peak in species richness in transition zones, indicating community mixing across boundaries.

Nitrogen Addition and Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi Beta Diversity: Patterns and Mechanisms

Yawen Lu et al.

Summary: Nitrogen addition decreased the richness of soil AMF by reducing the dominant genus Glomus and increasing rare genera. The shifts in beta diversity were primarily influenced by increased nestedness dissimilarity and significant variation within treatments, correlated with soil pH.

The allometry of plant height explains species loss under nitrogen addition

Yao Xiao et al.

Summary: The study found that the positive relationship between species relative abundance and the height scaling exponent disappeared after nitrogen addition, with species with lower height scaling exponents increasing in relative abundance, ultimately leading to a decrease in species richness.

Light availability and light demand of plants shape the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal communities in their roots

Lena Neuenkamp et al.

Summary: This study found that plants' shade-tolerance influences their root arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungal communities, with shade-intolerant plants showing lower AM fungal beta-diversity in shaded conditions due to preferential carbon allocation to specific AM fungi when plant-assimilated carbon available to fungi was limited. Favourable environmental conditions, such as optimal light availability, reduce plants' selectivity for specific AM fungi and promote compatibility with a larger number of AM fungal taxa.

Plant neighbours shape fungal assemblages associated with plant roots: A new understanding of niche-partitioning in plant communities

Cendrine Mony et al.

Summary: This study demonstrated that neighbouring plants from different taxonomic families provided different species pools for the focal plant, influenced the AMF communities associated with the focal plant, especially in terms of species richness. The effects were weakly dependent on phylogenetic distance but predicted by functional proximity, with AMF communities enriched and more similar to the neighbouring plants when functionally dissimilar from the focal plant.

Long-term nitrogen input alters plant and soil bacterial, but not fungal beta diversity in a semiarid grassland

Weixing Liu et al.

Summary: The effect of nitrogen input on beta-diversity differs among plant, soil bacterial, and fungal communities. Plant beta-diversity decreases linearly with increasing nitrogen addition due to environmental filtering, while soil bacterial beta-diversity first increases then decreases with corresponding changes in environmental heterogeneity. Soil fungal beta-diversity remains largely unchanged, indicating the importance of stochastic community assembly.

Strong host-specific selection and over-dominance characterize arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal root colonizers of coastal sand dune plants of the Mediterranean region

M. Tsiknia et al.

Summary: The assembly of root-colonizing AMF communities in the eastern Mediterranean sand dunes is mainly driven by host specificity, with geographical distance having little influence. The colonizer AMF communities are characterized by dominance of a single OTU that is host-specific among locations. Sites with small disturbances exhibit greater dissimilarity in AMF communities compared to undisturbed sites.

Disentangling the relative importance of spatio-temporal parameters and host specificity in shaping arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus communities in a temperate forest

Leonie Gruenfeld et al.

Summary: The study found variations in the AMF community composition in a small temperate forest site in Germany with respect to time, space, plant host species, and the coverage of AMF-associating woody species. Spatial factors had a greater impact on fungal community composition than time, mycorrhizal state of nearby woody species, or the identity of the host plant. The identity of the host plant was the only parameter that modified AMF richness in the roots.

Distinct effects of host and neighbour tree identity on arbuscular and ectomycorrhizal fungi along a tree diversity gradient

Martin M. Gossner et al.

Summary: Plant diversity and plant-related ecosystem functions are crucial in biodiversity-ecosystem functioning studies, with mycorrhizal fungi biotic interactions being understudied. Tree species richness and mycorrhizal type affect arbuscular and ectomycorrhizal fungal communities. AMF richness increases with tree species richness, while EMF richness decreases in mixed plots compared to monocultures. AMF are more specialised than EMF, and AMF communities are less influenced by surrounding trees than EMF communities.
