Fungal Community Ecology: A Hybrid Beast with a Molecular Master (2008, background): “The use of more quantitative molecular methods such as real-time PCR has also facilitated the study of fungal competition by allowing researchers to directly quantify the amount of biomass belonging to different species in mixed-species treatments (Kennedy et al. 2007).”
Ecological and functional roles of mycorrhizas in semi-arid ecosystems of Southeast Spain (2011, background): “…concerning the impact of mycorrhizal fungi on plant community composition and functioning concludes that the diversity and activity of mycorrhizal fungi is a key mechanism for ecosystem functioning Hart and Klironomos, 2002; Kennedy et al., 2007; Martínez-García and Pugnaire, 2009; Read, 1998).”
Spore heat resistance plays an important role in disturbance‐mediated assemblage shift of ectomycorrhizal fungi colonizing Pinus muricata seedlings (2009, background): “…of the genus Rhizopogon on seedlings grown in unheated soils, despite presence of their spores, strongly suggests competitive inferiority (e.g. Kennedy et al. 2007a,b), particularly, as all of these species have been observed to colonize seedlings well in the absence of competitors (Bruns et…”
