Mycorrhizal symbioses are complex relationships between plants and fungi that significantly affect ecosystem dynamics functions across terrestrial environments. These symbiotic interactions, which involve a diverse range of fungal lineages, including Mucoromycotina, Glomeromycotina, Ascomycota, Basidiomycota, as well various plant hosts, critical for nutrient cycling, carbon sequestration, growth, resilience both partners to environmental stressors. Recent advances in molecular biology, genetics, sciences have enhanced our understanding mycorrhizal illuminated the mechanisms govern these intricate interactions their ecological implications. In this New Phytologist Special Issue on 'Mycorrhizal research now: from micro- macro-scale', we bring together collection studies, examine types symbioses, such arbuscular mycorrhizal, orchid ericoid ectomycorrhizal associations. studies explored molecular, physiological, dimensions uncovering conversations illuminating broader By integrating perspectives, endeavors untangle multifaceted cascading effects ecosystems.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal diversity and association networks in African tropical rainforest trees

bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory), Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: unknown

Published: Feb. 8, 2024

Abstract Tropical rainforests represent one of the most diverse and productive ecosystems on Earth. High productivity is sustained by efficient rapid cycling nutrients through decomposing organic matter, which for a large part made possible symbiotic associations between plants mycorrhizal fungi. In this association, an individual plant typically associates simultaneously with multiple fungi fungus plants, creating complex networks plants. However, there are still very few studies that have investigated fungal composition diversity in tropical rainforest trees, particularly Africa, assessed structure network trees. study, we collected root rhizosphere soil samples from Ise Forest Reserve (Southwest Nigeria), employed metabarcoding approach to identify dominant arbuscular (AM) taxa associating ten co-occurring tree species assess variation AM communities. Network analysis was used elucidate architecture species. A total 194 Operational Taxonomic Units (OTUs) belonging six families were identified, 68% all OTUs Glomeraceae. While did not differ species, community did. analyses showed significantly nested relatively low level specialization ( H 2 = 0.43) modularity M 0.44).

Ecological divergence is marked by species specific plastic gene expression and distinct rhizosphere among sibling allopolyploid marsh orchids (Dactylorhiza)

bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory), Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: unknown

Published: April 28, 2024

Abstract Phenotypic plasticity, the dynamic adjustment of traits to environmental variations, is pivotal enabling species exploit broader niches and withstand suboptimal conditions. This adaptability expected be particularly relevant for newly formed allopolyploids, which have redundant gene copies must establish themselves in diverse environments, distinct from their parents other relatives. Here we investigate ecologically divergent sibling allopolyploid marsh orchids ( Dactylorhiza ) through reciprocal transplantation experiments at two localities understand drivers ecological divergence persistence face interspecific flow. Although consistent abiotic differences characterise alternative great majority expression between allopolyploids plastic. Few genes exhibit fixed differences, suggesting that despite divergence, plasticity may mediate flow thereby preventing differentiation. Extending our investigations rhizosphere, uncover a much more root mycobiome either when growing environment with nutrient-poor soils. Our finding suggests both biotic factors contribute distribution delimitation allopolyploids. Altogether, results indicate can simultaneously promote diversification homogenization lineages, influencing establishment recurrently species. Plain language summary A duplicated genome enhance polyploids, widening tolerance, but long term effects this remain unclear. Studying orchids, show high only very few transcriptomic differences. Instead, observe mycobiomes associated each orchid’s environment, revealing complex interplay polyploid speciation.
