continental view of pine‐associated ectomycorrhizal fungal spore banks: a quiescent functional guild with a strong biogeographic pattern

Ecologists have long acknowledged the importance of seed banks; yet, despite the fact that many plants rely on mycorrhizal fungi for survival and growth, the structure of ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungal spore banks remains poorly understood. The primary goal of this study was to assess the geographic s...
