“…Several studies have shown that environmental conditions are crucial to basidioma formation in ectomycorrhizal fungi, including temperature, carbon dioxide concentrations in the atmosphere, moisture, salinity (Kües and Liu, 2000;Wessels, 1993), fertilization regime (Debaud and Gay, 1987;Godbout and Fortin, 1990), relative humidity (Yamada et al, 2007), the contribution of host carbohydrates (Lamhamedi et al, 1994), and the abundance of ectomycorrhizal colonization of the fungal species of interest (Guerin-Laguette et al, 2013;2014;Pilz and Molina, 2001).…”
