Competitive interactions among three ectomycorrhizal fungi and their relation to host plant performance (2007, background): “If competitive dominance shifts across different environmental conditions (as suggested by the compositional shifts observed in studies such as Lilleskov et al. 2002 and Avis et al. 2003), this effect, when coupled with fine-scale spatial heterogeneity, may be an important factor preventing…”
Spore heat resistance plays an important role in disturbance‐mediated assemblage shift of ectomycorrhizal fungi colonizing Pinus muricata seedlings (2009, result): “…increased nitrogen mineralization at this level would contribute significantly to shifting ectomycorrhizal community structure, as the increases we observed (for both and ) are much smaller than those usually investigated in studies of anthropogenic N deposition (e.g. Lilleskov et al. 2002).”
The invasive plant Alliaria petiolata (garlic mustard) inhibits ectomycorrhizal fungi in its introduced range (2008, background): “Previous studies have shown that human activities such as nutrient enrichment and timber harvesting have impacted EM fungal communities (Lilleskov et al. 2002; Avis et al. 2003; Jones et al. 2003).”
Environmental filtering affects soil fungal community composition more than dispersal limitation at regional scales (2014, background): “Moreover, soil nutrient concentrations have been linked to shifts in fungal composition in a variety of ecosystems (Dickie et al., 2002; Lilleskov et al., 2002; Hoffland et al., 2004; Allison et al., 2007; Johnson et al., 2010), and are particularly relevant in southern California where nitrogen…”
Nitrogen enrichment causes minimal changes in arbuscular mycorrhizal colonization but shifts community composition—evidence from rDNA data (2005, background): “Studies that directly enumerated EM on the roots of host plants have confirmed that, indeed, the N-induced changes in fruiting bodies aboveground are also reflected by fungal community shifts belowground (Avis et al. 2003; Lilleskov et al. 2002; Peter et al. 2001; Wallenda and Kottke 1998).”
A review and application of the evidence for nitrogen impacts on ecosystem services (2014, background): “Van Swaay, 2006) and on soil microbial and fungal diversity (Lilleskov et al., 2002; Pardo et al., 2010).”
Long‐term experimental manipulation of climate alters the ectomycorrhizal community of Betula nana in Arctic tundra (2011, methodology): “A model based on the natural abundance of 13C and 15N in plant and fungal tissues from Alaskan tundra estimated that 61–86% of the nitrogen (N) in plants is filtered through mycorrhizal fungi (Hobbie & Hobbie, 2006).”
Nitrogen addition alters ectomycorrhizal fungal communities and soil enzyme activities in a tropical montane forest (2017, background): “community structure, and composition of EM fungi (Peter et al., 2001; Lilleskov et al., 2002; Pardo et al., 2011; Morrison et al., 2016).”

Bruns 2003; Richard et al. 2005; Walker et al. 2005; Toljander et al. 2006; Ishida et al. 2007; Smith et al.…”
Mycorrhizal responses to nitrogen fertilization in boreal ecosystems: potential consequences for soil carbon storage (2007, positive): “Likewise, other studies have noted decreases in ECM abundance under N fertilization in boreal ecosystems (Lilleskov et al., 2002; Nilsson & Wallander, 2003).”
Nitrogen additions and microbial biomass: a meta-analysis of ecosystem studies. (2008, background): “Ectomycorrhizal diversity frequently decreases following N fertilization or deposition (Arnolds 1991; Lilleskov et al. 2001, 2002; Peter et al. 2001; Frey et al. 2004), although belowground changes tend to be less pronounced than aboveground changes (Karen & Nylund 1997; Jonsson et al. 2000; Peter…”
Biochar enhances seedling growth and alters root symbioses and properties of sub-boreal forest soils (2012, background): “Russulaceae ECMs, which are commonly associated with acidic, low-N soils, may be specialized to access organic sources of N directly via oxidative enzyme activity, which may give these fungi a competitive advantage over ECM fungi unable to acquire nutrients from organic substrates in nutrient-poor h”
