Happy to announce our new letter published in Pedosphere: The necessity to expand mycorrhizal boundaries: including the fungal endophytes that possess key mycorrhizal criteria 10.1016/j.pedsph.2024.01.004 The conventional classification of #mycorrhizal associations emphasizes specialized fungal structures at the root-fungus interface that are involved in nutrient exchange between #symbionts. However, this classification is somewhat contrived, as the biological reality favours a continuum rather than distinct divisions. Mycorrhizal #fungi and certain endophytic fungi colonize roots and transfer nutrients to host plants via undifferentiated hyphae/hyphal coils or highly specialized structures such as arbuscules. Paradoxically, some of these associations are categorized as mycorrhiza, while others are labelled as endophytes, without apparent rationale. Here, we address the mycorrhiza-#endophyte misclassification issue and emphasize that the focus in definition of #mycorrhiza needs to be on ‘root colonization’ and ‘nutritional benefits for host plant’ (the two key features shared by all conventional mycorrhizal categories), rather than the inconsistent traits such as specialization of fungal structures at the symbiotic interface or carbon transfer to fungus.

First report of the nematode-trapping fungus Arthrobotrys thaumasia in Türkiye and its biocontrol potential against Meloidogyne incognita Root-knot nematodes, particularly, Meloidogyne incognita, are among the most destructive endoparasitic nematodes, infecting a diverse range of plant hosts. Nematode-trapping fungi are known for their potential application as biological control agents against plant parasitic nematodes. In the present study, the nematode-trapping fungus Arthrobotrys thaumasia was isolated from the rhizosphere soil of tomato plants in the West Mediterranean Region […] https://lnkd.in/eTn7DeKF
