Ecological understanding of root-infecting fungi using trait-based approaches.

Trends in plant science - 1 Jul 2014

Aguilar-Trigueros Carlos A, Powell Jeff R, Anderson Ian C, Antonovics Janis, Rillig Matthias C

Abstract excerpt

Classification schemes have been popular to tame the diversity of root-infecting fungi. However, the usefulness of these schemes is limited to descriptive purposes. We propose that a shift to a multidimensional trait-based approach to disentangle the saprotrophic-symbiotic continuum will provide a better framework to understand fungal evolutionary ecology. Trait information reflecting the separation of...
