Effects of fuel reduction treatments on the sporocarp production and richness of a Quercus/Cistus mixed system

Ignacio Sanz-Benito et al.

Summary: Wildfire is a recurrent factor that shapes and influences Mediterranean ecosystems where mixed oak forests and rockrose understory are broadly represented along with large and diverse fungal communities. Fuel reduction treatments can reduce the risk of wildfire, but their potential impact on fungal communities is unclear. The study found that moderate/high-intensity fuel reduction treatments are compatible with the conservation of fungal communities in these systems.

Prescribed burning in spring or autumn did not affect the soil fungal community in Mediterranean Pinus nigra natural forests

Aitor Vazquez-Veloso et al.

Summary: The study found that prescribed burning did not significantly impact total fungal richness and composition, but did reveal differences in specific phyla and functional trophic groups. Valuable edible fungi were found in the study area, unaffected by prescribed burning.

Sampling forest soils to describe fungal diversity and composition. Which is the optimal sampling size in mediterranean pure and mixed pine oak forests?

Irene Adamo et al.

Summary: Soil sampling optimization for high-throughput DNA sequencing studies in Mediterranean forest ecosystems is essential for accurate descriptions of fungal communities. Mixing three soil samples in pine and oak forests provided consistent richness estimations, while at least six samples were needed in mixed forests.

High fire frequency reduces soil fertility underneath woody plant canopies of Mediterranean ecosystems

M. Belen Hinojosa et al.

Summary: Spatial heterogeneity of soil properties plays a major role in regulating ecosystem structure and functioning. Increasing fire frequency leads to reduced soil fertility heterogeneity, potentially compromising the recovery of soil and ecosystem functioning.

Fire alters plant microbiome assembly patterns: integrating the plant and soil microbial response to disturbance

Nicholas C. Dove et al.

Summary: The plant microbiome is crucial for plant health, but our understanding of it in regenerating plant communities is limited. Research shows that both soil and plant tissue microbiomes respond to fire. The impact of fire on plant microbiome assembly, diversity, and composition highlights the need for further study to enhance plant fitness and ecosystem recovery post-fire.

FungalTraits: a user-friendly traits database of fungi and fungus-like stramenopiles

Sergei Polme et al.

Summary: The article introduces a database FungalTraits to facilitate functional assignments and ecological interpretation of fungi, discussing the challenges between molecular identification of fungal diversity and knowledge of functional traits. Through the involvement of expert knowledge and tools, researchers reannotated a large number of fungal and Stramenopila genera, summarizing them into 17 lifestyle-related traits suitable for environmental studies.
