  2. 1. Genome and Transcriptome Analyzes in the Ectomycorrhizal Fungus Paxillus involutus

    Author : Antoine Le Quéré; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mikrobiologi; bakteriologi; virologi; mykologi; virology; mycology; bacteriology; Microbiology; Genome Transcriptome Ectomycorrhiza Paxillus-involutus microarray;

    Abstract : Mycorrhizal symbioses are formed between plant root systems and compatible fungal hyphae that results in a complex mixed structure. They are found in all ecosystems and with the majority of land plants such as forest trees or crops that are of commercial interest. READ MORE

  4. 2. Insights into the Molecular Mechanisms of Litter Decomposition and Assimilation of Nitrogen by Ectomycorrhizal Fungi

    Author : Firoz Shah; MEMEG; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ectomycorrhizal fungi; Paxillus involutus; organic matter degradation; Fenton chemistry; carbon availability; N assimilation; C and N cycling; protein degradation pathway; secondary metabolites;

    Abstract : Ectomycorrhizae is the dominant type of mycorrhiza found in association with tree roots in boreal and northern temperate forests. In this symbiosis, the fungal partner derives energy from photosynthates provided by the host trees and in return delivers soil-derived nutrients such as nitrogen (N). READ MORE

  5. 3. The use of molecular markers for identifying species diversity and functional variation of ectomycorrhizal fungi

    Author : Jenny Hedh; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ectomycorrhiza; molecular markers; Paxillus involutus; ITS region; phylogenetic species; host compatibility; gene expression; CGH;

    Abstract : Ectomycorrhiza (EM) is a symbiosis between soil living fungi and the roots of woody plants. EM fungal communities are important in forest nutrient cycling, they are species rich and their structures vary between habitats and over time. READ MORE

  6. 4. Evolutionary genomics of symbiotic fungi

    Author : Balaji Rajashekar; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Protein family; Symbiosis; Paxillus involutus; Laccaria bicolor; Hydrophobin; Fungi; Ectomycorrhizae; Evolution; Comparative Genomics; Basidiomycetes;

    Abstract : Ectomycorrhizae is a mutualistic association between roots of woody plants and a diverse range of soil fungi. The fungi exchange soil derived mineral nutrients for photosynthetic sugars from the host plant. The mycorrhizal symbioses are commonly found in all forest ecosystems and have a major ecological and economical importance. READ MORE

  7. 5. Biomass, community structure and phosphorus uptake of ectomycorrhizal fungi in response to phosphorus limitation and nitrogen deposition

    Author : Juan Pablo Almeida; MEMEG; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Phosphorus and nitrogen limitation; nitrogen deposition; ectomycorrhizal fungi; community composition; apatite; Paxillus involutus; Phosphorus and nitrogen limitation; nitrogen deposition; ectomycorrhizal fungi; community composition; apatite; Paxillus involutus;

    Abstract : High levels of nitrogen (N) deposition might result in a transition from N to phosphorus (P) limitation in high latitude forests. Thiscould have fundamental consequences for forest production, nutrient acquisition and nutrient leaching. READ MORE
