Abstract excerpt
Tricholoma scalpturatum is an ectomycorrhizal fungus that forms symbioses with roots of diverse trees and shrubs. It is commonly encountered in a wide range of habitats, across temperate ecosystems.

To examine genetic structure at a large geographical scale, a total of 164 basidiocarps were collected from 30...
