DOI: 10.1016/j.myc.2020.04.001
Abstract: Abstract The relative abundance of ectomycorrhizal (ECM) roots in pure and mixed stand compositions of Dryas octopetala, Salix repens and Arctostaphylos uva-ursi grown in Scottish coastal arctic/alpine relict habitat was described through ECM morphotyping and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2118120119
Abstract: Shrub recruitment, a key component of vegetation dynamics beyond forests, is a highly sensitive indicator of climate and environmental change. Warming-induced tipping points in Arctic and alpine treeless ecosystems are, however, little understood. Here, we… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/15230430.2019.1592649
Abstract: ABSTRACT Recent vegetation changes in arctic-alpine tundra ecosystems may affect several ecosystem processes that regulate microbe and soil functions. Such changes can alter ecosystem carbon (C) cycling with positive feedback to the atmosphere if plant… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/15230430.2020.1771869
Abstract: ABSTRACT Mushrooms and other fleshy fungi are important components of arctic and alpine habitats where they enhance nutrient uptake in plants and replenish poor soils through decomposition. Here we assemble the 200-year (1819–2019) record of… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/plants12051001
Abstract: The relict arctic–alpine tundra provides a natural laboratory to study the potential impacts of climate change and anthropogenic disturbance on tundra vegetation. The Nardus stricta-dominated relict tundra grasslands in the Krkonoše Mountains have experienced shifting… read more here.

DOI: 10.3897/mycokeys.46.32823
Abstract: Abstract Numerous taxa of Hebeloma have been reported in association with Salix, Dryas, and Betula in arctic-alpine habitats. However, species are notoriously difficult to delineate because morphological features overlap, and previously there was little reliable… read more here.
