Productivity and diversity of morel mushrooms in healthy, burned, and insect-damaged forests of northeastern Oregon (2004, background): “The use of radiocarbon isotope ratios (Hobbie et al., 2002) to determine whether field-collected morels are the product of saprobic or mycorrhizal mycelia is a promising new technique.”
Ectomycorrhizal mushroom distribution by stand age in western hemlock - lodgepole pine forests of northwestern British Columbia (2005, background): “We did not include most of the Clavarioid group (fairy clubs and coral fungi), with the exception of Ramaria rasilispora, because of the uncertain mycorrhizal status of some species (Hobbie et al. 2002) and”
The decomposition of ectomycorrhizal fungal necromass (2016, background): “Mycorrhizal fungi are unique among fungi in that the majority of their C is derived from living host plants (Hobbie et al., 2002).”
Use of stable carbon and nitrogen isotopes in insect trophic ecology (2015, methodology): “This method has been applied to many soil organisms such as enchytraeids (Briones & Ineson 2002), termites (Tayasu et al. 2002b; Hyodo et al. 2008), earthworms (Briones et al. 2005; Toyota et al. 2010), spiders (Haraguchi et al. 2013) and fungi (Hobbie et al. 2002, 2013).”
