The significance of genetic diversity for ectomycorrhizal fungal productivity and CO₂ efflux

Ectomycorrhizal (EM) fungi play key functional roles in forest ecosystems; they are fundamental to the health and nutrition of their plant partners and they cycle vast amounts of photosynthetically fixed carbon (C) through the soil. They also form diverse belowground communities, yet to date only a...
