Abstract excerpt
Pisolithus are ectomycorrhizal fungi that associate with roots of numerous plant species in natural and plantation forests worldwide. Despite the fact that Pisolithus spp. are present in plantation forests in many countries, knowledge of the genetic population structure of Pisolithus spp. remains limited. In this study, we have tested the hypothesis that a propensity for long-distance spore dispersal in...
