Fungal Community Ecology: A Hybrid Beast with a Molecular Master (2008, background): “…non-molecular studies, one that showed polypores in a low-diversity mangrove swamp in Panama were highly specific to a single species of mangrove (Gilbert and Sousa 2002), and another that showed host generalism was common in wood-decay fungi in a diverse tropical rainforest (Ferrer and Gilbert…”

A first comprehensive census of fungi in soil reveals both hyperdiversity and fine-scale niche partitioning (2014, background): “Even among soil fungi, our census overlooked some guilds; we did not sample coarse woody debris, fresh litter, or decaying moss, each of which is known to host specialist fungi (Gilbert and Sousa 2002, Lindahl et al. 2007, Davey et al. 2012), nor deep soil.”
