FUNGuild: An open annotation tool for parsing fungal community datasets by ecological guild (2016, background): “…group’) was created early in ecology (Schimper and Fisher 1902) and broadly annotation tool for parsing fungal community datasets by ecological 06 refers to a group of species, whether related or unrelated, that exploit the same class of environmental resources in a similar way (Root, 1967).”
Lignin degradation: microorganisms, enzymes involved, genomes analysis and evolution (2017, background): “The historical line between white rot and brown rot is blurred now as some researchers suggested that Sc. commune is an evolutionary intermediate between white and brown rot species (Riley et al. 2014).”
Functional guild classification predicts the enzymatic role of fungi in litter and soil biogeochemistry (2015, methodology): “…substantial variation in extracellular enzyme production exists among species within these guilds (Ander and Eriksson,1977) and the lines between functional guilds can be blurred based on extracellular enzyme activities (Burke et al., 2014) and functional gene abundances (Riley et al., 2014).”
Fungal Degradation of Wood: Emerging Data, New Insights and Changing Perceptions (2020, background): “These separations are arbitrary and we now recognize that the decay types are more of a continuum [34], but the categories are helpful in generally classifying these fungal degradative agents, and for discussion.”
Fire severity influences the response of soil microbes to a boreal forest fire (2016, background): “The Basidiomycota includes saprotrophic fungi with well-developed capacities to degrade recalcitrant C compounds (Floudas et al 2012, Riley et al 2014).”
