Assembling the fungal tree of life: progress, classification, and evolution of subcellular traits. (2004, background): “This number may yet underestimate the true magnitude of fungal biodiversity (Hywel-Jones, 1993; Dreyfuss and Chapela, 1994; Blackwell and Jones, 1997; Frölich and Hyde, 1999; Arnold et al., 2000; Hyde, 2000a, b; Gilbert et al., 2002; Persoh, 2002; Persoh and Rambold, 2003).”
Wood-decaying fungi in the forest: conservation needs and management options (2007, background): “fungi in the tropics similar to that in boreal regions? The answer might be determined by the greater rarity of fungal tropical species (Gilbert et al. 2002) and their lower host specialization (Lindblad 2000; Gilbert and Sousa 2002), both possibly inXuenced by higher tree species diversity (Ferrer ”
Endophytic fungal communities in woody perennials of three tropical forest types of the Western Ghats, southern India (2011, background): “Such a low host specificity has been observed for other groups of plant-associated tropical fungi such as wood rotting fungi (Lindblad 2000; Gilbert et al. 2002; Parfitt et al. 2010), ectomycorrhizal fungi (Diédhiou et al. 2010; Tedersoo et al. 2010) and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (Aldrich-Wolfe…”
Diversity of fungal endophytes in leaves and stems of wild rubber trees (Hevea brasiliensis) in Peru (2010, background): “A constant challenge is the prevalence of singletons species, even in large-scale surveys (Arnold et al. 2001; Gilbert et al. 2002; Arnold & Lutzoni 2007).”
Linking fungi, trees, and hole-using birds in a Neotropical tree-cavity network: Pathways of cavity production and implications for conservation (2012, background): “In South America, Phellinus species are important parasites on living trees (Gilbert et al., 2002; Robledo et al., 2006); however, in contrast to North America, we found their fruiting bodies were nearly always associated with non-excavated cavities, not woodpecker cavities.”
Cryptogam communities on decaying deciduous wood – does tree species diversity matter? (2005, background): “…for the two species groups (cf. Söderström 1988a; Andersson and Hytteborn 1991; Renvall 1995; Huhndorf and Lodge 1997; Ódor and Standovár 2001; Gilbert et al. 2002), and indicate that dead wood represent a much higher number of niches for fungi, which directly utilises dead wood as a…”
Variation in forest soil fungal diversity along a latitudinal gradient (2013, result): “Similarly, another study by Gilbert et al. (2002) found an inverse relationship between tree species diversity and saprophytic fungal diversity, showing that high tree host density, such as in temperate forests, led to greater fungal diversity than in forest systems with low host density.”
Wood-inhabiting macrofungi in Danish beech-forests – conflicting diversity patterns and their implications in a conservation perspective (2005, background): “Several studies have investigated the relations between fungal diversity and local environmental conditions (e.g. Renvall, 1995; Høiland and Bendiksen, 1996; Lindblad, 1998; Gilbert et al., 2002; HeilmannClausen and Christensen, 2003).”
Causes and implications of the correlation between forest productivity and tree mortality rates (2011, background): “In the BCI plot, a survey of 869 randomly selected trees of ten species showed that 7% of living trees had fruiting bodies of wood-decaying polypore fungi on their boles (Gilbert et al. 2002).”
Host Specialization among Wood-Decay Polypore Fungi in a Caribbean Mangrove Forest1 (2002, background): “These physiological traits appear to affect both the relative susceptibility to foliar infection by pathogenic fungi as well as the relative diversity of endophytic fungi of the three host species (Gilbert et al. 2002b).”
