Fungal Community Analysis by Large-Scale Sequencing of Environmental Samples (2005, background): “Studying the ecological interactions of these organisms is challenging because of the extremely high diversity of soil fungi, the complexity of the substrate, and the difficulty of direct observation of these communities (4).”
Microbial composition and diversity of an upland red soil under long-term fertilization treatments as revealed by culture-dependent and culture-independent approaches (2008, methodology): “Since the major limitation of molecular methods in soil microbial studies is the lack of discrimination between the living and dead, or active and dormant microorganisms (Bridge and Spooner 2001), both culture-dependent and culture-independent methods should be used to appropriately characterize soi”
Combining real-time PCR and next-generation DNA sequencing to provide quantitative comparisons of fungal aerosol populations (2014, background): “By detecting nonculturable fungi or nonviable fungal spores that may have health or environmental impacts, DNA sequence-based methods circumvent the significant diversity biases associated with culturing (Bridge and Spooner, 2001; Peccia et al., 2011).”
Real-time quantitative PCR: a new technology to detect and study phytopathogenic and antagonistic fungi (2004, background): “A variety of naturally occurring compounds, such as humic acids, tannins, and lignin associated compounds, can interfere with PCR reactions and inhibit the amplification (Cullen and Hirsch 1998; Bridge and Spooner, 2001; Ippolito et al., 2002), although such problems have been partially overcome by ”
Functional guild classification predicts the enzymatic role of fungi in litter and soil biogeochemistry (2015, background): “This difficulty arises because of our inability to isolate and culture many species from the environment (Bridge and Spooner, 2001), the limitations of extrapolating functional studies of species in culture to field settings (Anderson and Cairney, 2004), and the biases associated with functional met”
Influences of fire on forest soil fungal communities (2007, background): “Few studies have attempted to assess the influence of fire on belowground communities of soil fungi as a whole (Table 1); most have used dilution plating methods and have therefore yielded information relating only to selected, readily culturable fungi (Bridge and Spooner 2001).”
Real-time detection of Phytophthora nicotianae and P. citrophthorain citrus roots and soil (2004, background): “) that can affect both culture and molecular detection methods (Bridge and Spooner, 2001).”
Diversity of free-living and lichenized fungal communities in biological soil crusts of the Sultanate of Oman and their role in improving soil properties (2013, background): “Cultivation tend to favor sporulating fungal species but not those existing as mycelial propagules or dormant spores, which may constitute a numerically dominant fraction of the field fungal communities (Davet and Rouxel, 1997; Bridge and Spooner, 2001).”
Nitrogen fertilization reduces diversity and alters community structure of active fungi in boreal ecosystems (2007, background): “Microbial DNA can be extracted from environmental samples, amplified with polymerase chain reaction (PCR), cloned into bacteria, and sequenced in high-throughput facilities (Bridge and Spooner, 2001).”
