“…The most appreciated among these is Boletus edulis Bull. that can produce extraordinary amount of fruitbodies in C. ladanifer scrublands (Oria- de-Rueda et al, 2008;Hern andez-Rodr ıguez et al, 2015b). This species is highly sought after as a gourmet food, which generates an important worldwide market (Dentinger et al, 2010;Catcheside and Catcheside, 2012).…”

Summary Cistus ladanifer scrublands, traditionally considered as unproductive, have nonetheless been observed to produce large quantities of king bolete (Boletus edulis) fruitbodies. These pyrophytic scrublands are prone to wildfires, which severely affect fungi, hence the need for fire prevention in producing C. ladanifer scrublands. In addition, B. edulis productions have severely decreased in the last years. A deeper understanding of the B. edulis life cycle and of biotic and abiotic factors influencing sporocarp formation is needed to implement management practices that facilitate B. edulis production. For example, some bacteria likely are involved in sporocarp production, representing a key part in the triple symbiosis (plant–fungus–bacteria). In this study, we used soil DNA metabarcoding in C. ladanifer scrublands to (i) assess the effect of site history and fire prevention treatment on bacterial richness and community composition; (ii) test if there was any correlation between various taxonomic groups of bacteria and mycelial biomass and sporocarp production of B. edulis; and to (iii) identify indicator bacteria associated with the most productive B. edulis sites. Our results show that site history drives bacterial richness and community composition, while fire prevention treatments have a weaker, but still detectable effect, particularly in the senescent plots. Sporocarp production correlated positively with genera in Verrucomicrobia. Several genera, e.g. Azospirillum and Gemmatimonas, were identified as indicators of the most productive sites, suggesting a potential biological role in B. edulis fructification. This study provides a better understanding of the triple symbiosis (plant–fungus–bacteria) involved in C. ladanifer–B. edulis systems.

“…Due to the pyrophytic ecology of this species, there is a very high risk of fire in senescent shrublands. In the northwest of the Iberian Peninsula it is very common to use fire to control shrub accumulation (Hernández-Rodríguez et al 2015b). In addition, some clearings are performed in order to decrease this high fire risk.…”

“…Therefore, these areas have not been paid any attention in forest management. However, previous studies have shown potential high profits from a large production of edible wild mushrooms in these ecosystems (Hernández-Rodríguez et al 2015b). The most valuable fungal species associated with them is Boletus edulis Bull., which is a highly prized culinary mushroom in many countries , and is perceived as a luxury good in the main Spanish markets (Voces et al 2012).…”

High resilience of the mycorrhizal community to prescribed seasonal burnings in eastern Mediterranean woodlands

Fire effects on ecosystems range from destruction of aboveground vegetation to direct and indirect effects on belowground microorganisms. Although variation in such effects is expected to be related to fire severity, another potentially important and poorly understood factor is the effects of fire seasonality on soil microorganisms. We carried out a large-scale field experiment examining the effects of spring versus autumn burns on the community composition of soil fungi in a typical Mediterranean woodland. Although the intensity and severity of our prescribed burns were largely consistent between the two burning seasons, we detected differential fire season effects on the composition of the soil fungal community, driven by changes in the saprotrophic fungal guild. The community composition of ectomycorrhizal fungi, assayed both in pine seedling bioassays and from soil sequencing, appeared to be resilient to the variation inflicted by seasonal fires. Since changes in the soil saprotrophic fungal community can directly influence carbon emission and decomposition rates, we suggest that regardless of their intensity and severity, seasonal fires may cause changes in ecosystem functioning.
