Different soil moisture conditions change the outcome of the ectomycorrhizal symbiosis between Rhizopogon species and Pinus muricata (2007, background): “But ECM fungal species differ considerably in hyphal and root tip morphology (Agerer 2001) as well as”
Phytoremediation of Metal-Polluted Soils by Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (2012, result): “In this respect several studies have shown that ectomycorrhizal and ericoid mycorrhizal fungi play an important role in the phytoremediation of metal-polluted sites (Agerer, 2001; Gadd, 1993; Martino et al., 2003).”
The mycorrhizal-associated nutrient economy: a new framework for predicting carbon-nutrient couplings in temperate forests. (2013, background): “The uptake of organic N by ECM plants is consequential, as there is a reduced assimilatory cost in taking up amino acids relative to inorganic N (Allen et al., 2003).”
Fungal Community Ecology: A Hybrid Beast with a Molecular Master (2008, background): “Attempts to assign functional traits to fungal hypha on the basis of their morphology (Agerer 2001) have had some success, but, as with bacteria and archaea, functional differences among fungi are primarily biochemical and lack good morphological indicators.”
Long‐term experimental manipulation of climate alters the ectomycorrhizal community of Betula nana in Arctic tundra (2011, background): “In addition to field-based studies that provide evidence linking ECM taxa with ecological functions, several morphological attributes may suggest roles for species or groups (Agerer, 2001).”
How metal-tolerant ecotypes of ectomycorrhizal fungi protect plants from heavy metal pollution (2011, background): “The external mycelial system of many ECM fungi, including Suillus species, can be classified into the longdistance exploration type allowing these fungi to take up nutrients (and metals) from a large soil volume (Agerer 2001).”
Direct nocturnal water transfer from oaks to their mycorrhizal symbionts during severe soil drying (2002, background): “The mycorrhizal mycelium nearest to roots appeared to be highly hydrophobic, as has been noted previously (Agerer 2001).”
Towards a multidimensional root trait framework: a tree root review. (2016, background): “…functional trait approach to mycorrhizal fungi (Koide et al., 2013; AguilarTrigueros et al., 2015; Fernandez & Kennedy, 2015), for example by measuring the fungal enzyme spectrum – related to plant resource availability – and linking this to resource acquisition (Aguilar-Trigueros et al., 2015).”
Networks of power and influence: the role of mycorrhizal mycelium in controlling plant communities and agroecosystem functioning (2004, background): “…and functioning of EM mycelia in soil have been gained through a combination of careful microscopic observations of ectomycorrhizal roots with adhering soil collected from forests (Agerer 2001) and the growth, normally of selected species of mycorrhizas, in thin-layer soil microcosms (Fig.”
Rapid incorporation of carbon from ectomycorrhizal mycelial necromass into soil fungal communities (2012, methodology): “All PCRs were performed using the conditions described in Anderson et al. (2003) with Go-Taq Flexi DNA polymerase (Promega, Madison, WI, USA).”
FUNGuild: An open annotation tool for parsing fungal community datasets by ecological guild (2016, background): “A similar example involves ectomycorrhizal fungi, which have been increasingly classified according to their extraradical mycelial exploration types (Agerer, 2001; Tedersoo and Smith, 2013).”
Evaluation of methods to estimate production, biomass and turnover of ectomycorrhizal mycelium in forests soils : A review (2013, background): “The characterized ECM morphotypes represent about 5% of known fungi that can form ectomycorrhiza (Taylor and Alexander, 2005), the number of which is estimated to be 5000e6000 fungal species (Agerer, 2006).”
Plant intraspecific variation modulates nutrient cycling through its below ground rhizospheric microbiome (2019, background): “…in mycorrhizal symbioses, the C allocated to each fungus for mycelial biomass can greatly differ depending on their exploration strategy (Agerer, 2001), nutrient mobilization ability (Talbot, Martin, Kohler, Henrissat, & Peay, 2015) and on whether they are favoured by the host (Bever,…”
Fungal relationships and structural identity of their ectomycorrhizae (2006, background): “ECM can form different amounts of rhizomorphs and emanating hyphae, what can be used to distinguish socalled exploration types (ET) (Agerer 2001).”

Forest microbiome: diversity, complexity and dynamics. (2016, background): “ECM fungi inhabit plant roots and the rhizosphere, and most of them extend into the bulk soil, although to a varying extent depending on their mycelial structure, the so-called exploration type (Agerer 2001).”
