Abstract:Aim: Ecoregions and the distance decay in community similarity are fundamental concepts in biogeography and conservation biology that are well supported across plants and animals, but not fungi. Here we test the relevance of these concepts for ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi in temperate and boreal regions. Location: Europe. Time period: 2008 - 2015. Major taxa studied: Ectomycorrhizal fungi. Methods: We used a large dataset of ~ 24,000 ectomycorrhizas, assigned to 1,350 operational taxonomic units, collected from… Show more
