Response of soil fungal ecological guilds to global changes

Original language description

Fungi are eukaryotic microorganisms that play fundamental roles in regulating key ecosystem processes. They act as major decomposers of organic matter, contribute to carbon mineralization and sequestration, and act as crucial regulators of the soil carbon balance, which is a major priority for human survival in this century (Crowther et al., 2019). Besides the free-living saprotrophs, many fungal species form symbiotic associations with plants or animals. As plant pathogens, fungi significantly influence plant primary production as well as plant species richness and community composition. In both animals and plants, an unprecedented number of fungal diseases have recently caused some of the most severe die-offs and are jeopardizing food security (Fisher et al., 2012). By contrast, mycorrhizal fungi act as beneficial plant symbionts. Importantly, > 90% of all terrestrial plants, including the most important agricultural crops, largely depend on their mycorrhizal symbionts for uptake of water and mineral nutrients (Brundrett & Tedersoo, 2018). Mycorrhizal fungi can also provide protection against pathogens to their host plants. In return, terrestrial plants provide mycorrhizal fungi with carbon-rich compounds such as sugars and lipids (Brundrett & Tedersoo, 2018). Shifts among the above-listed fungal ecological guilds (i.e. a group of species that exploit/depend on the same resources) can, therefore, largely affect plant performance as well as various ecosystem processes. In this issue of New Phytologist, Rodriguez-Ramos et al. (2021, pp. 1105–1117) provide detailed evidence that the disturbance of temperate forests with bark beetle outbreaks, wildfires, and salvage and clear-cut logging, unequally affects different fungal ecological guilds.
