We created detailed maps of Stockholm region's climate and air quality and characterized foliar fungi from mature oaks (Quercus robur) across climatic, air quality and local habitat gradients. Fungal richness was higher in locations with high growing season relative humidity, and fungal community composition was structured by growing season maximum temperature, NO2 concentration and leaf litter cover. The relative abundance of mycoparasites and endophytes increased with temperature. The relative abundance of pathogens was lowest with high concentrations of NO2 and particulate matter (PM2.5), while saprotrophs increased with leaf litter cover.

Depending on how microbial communities are structured, we can expect different effects of the microbial community on the health of individual plants and on ecosystem processes. Importantly, the relative role of different factors will likely differ with the scale examined. Here, we address the driving factors at a landscape level, where each individual unit (oak trees) is accessible to a joint species pool. This allowed to quantify the relative effect of environmental factors and dispersal on the distribution of two types of fungal communities: those associated with the leaves and those associated with the soil of Quercus robur trees in a landscape in southwestern Finland. Within each community type, we compared the role of microclimatic, phenological, and spatial variables, and across community types, we examined the degree of association between the respective communities. Most of the variation in the foliar fungal community was found within trees, whereas soil fungal community composition showed positive spatial autocorrelation up to 50 m. Microclimate, tree phenology, and tree spatial connectivity explained little variation in the foliar and soil fungal communities. Foliar and soil fungal communities differed strongly in community structure, with no significant concordance detected between them. We provide evidence that foliar and soil fungal communities assemble independent of each other and are structured by different ecological processes.", "doi": "10.1002/ece3.10065", "pmid": "37223309", "labels": {"NGI Short read": "Service", "National Genomics Infrastructure": "Service", "NGI Stockholm (Genomics Production)": "Service", "Bioinformatics Support for Computational Resources": "Service"}, "xrefs": [{"db": "pmc", "key": "PMC10200691"}, {"db": "pii", "key": "ECE310065"}, {"db": "figshare", "key": "10.6084/m9.figshare.22687594"}], "notes": [], "created": "2023-10-11T09:16:14.644Z", "modified": "2024-01-16T13:48:33.507Z"}, {"entity": "publication", "iuid": "e62b7eafc3ef4b2d8c35029095a1d6b7", "links": {"self": {"href": "https://publications.scilifelab.se/publication/e62b7eafc3ef4b2d8c35029095a1d6b7.json"}, "display": {"href": "https://publications.scilifelab.se/publication/e62b7eafc3ef4b2d8c35029095a1d6b7"}}, "title": "Climate warming dominates over plant genotype in shaping the seasonal trajectory of foliar fungal communities on oak.", "authors": [{"family": "Faticov", "given": "Maria", "initials": "M", "orcid": "0000-0001-8206-9332", "researcher": {"href": "https://publications.scilifelab.se/researcher/cd00e5ee400e440ba76d1010f5cbe7d9.json"}}, {"family": "Abdelfattah", "given": "Ahmed", "initials": "A", "orcid": "0000-0001-6090-7200", "researcher": {"href": "https://publications.scilifelab.se/researcher/4321fbf1b3b642daa6a4f285f00a192f.json"}}, {"family": "Roslin", "given": "Tomas", "initials": "T", "orcid": "0000-0002-2957-4791", "researcher": {"href": "https://publications.scilifelab.se/researcher/04d92328b67e47ab82257567c07cf12f.json"}}, {"family": "Vacher", "given": "Corinne", "initials": "C", "orcid": "0000-0003-3023-6113", "researcher": {"href": "https://publications.scilifelab.se/researcher/438c203052ab486b8d24a6b30db6e37d.json"}}, {"family": "Hamb\u00e4ck", "given": "Peter", "initials": "P", "orcid": "0000-0001-6362-6199", "researcher": {"href": "https://publications.scilifelab.se/researcher/1ddfc67c7c774583861a5ea3774eaa1a.json"}}, {"family": "Blanchet", "given": "F Guillaume", "initials": "FG", "orcid": "0000-0001-5149-2488", "researcher": {"href": "https://publications.scilifelab.se/researcher/2a538130cd9443a6bd76b3c622ca76a9.json"}}, {"family": "Lindahl", "given": "Bj\u00f6rn D", "initials": "BD", "orcid": "0000-0002-3384-4547", "researcher": {"href": "https://publications.scilifelab.se/researcher/b7a40688d33545a19c3c666940bda255.json"}}, {"family": "Tack", "given": "Ayco J M", "initials": "AJM", "orcid": "0000-0002-3550-1070", "researcher": {"href": "https://publications.scilifelab.se/researcher/7f9cf8fde705481281edab32bc9156e5.json"}}], "type": "journal article", "published": "2021-09-00", "journal": {"title": "New Phytol.", "issn": "1469-8137", "volume": "231", "issue": "5", "pages": "1770-1783", "issn-l": "0028-646X"}, "abstract": "Leaves interact with a wealth of microorganisms. Among these, fungi are highly diverse and are known to contribute to plant health, leaf senescence and early decomposition. However, patterns and drivers of the seasonal dynamics of foliar fungal communities are poorly understood. We used a multifactorial experiment to investigate the influence of warming and tree genotype on the foliar fungal community on the pedunculate oak Quercus robur across one growing season. Fungal species richness increased, evenness tended to decrease, and community composition strongly shifted during the growing season. Yeasts increased in relative abundance as the season progressed, while putative fungal pathogens decreased. Warming decreased species richness, reduced evenness and changed community composition, especially at the end of the growing season. Warming also negatively affected putative fungal pathogens. We only detected a minor imprint of tree genotype and warming \u00d7 genotype interactions on species richness and community composition. Overall, our findings demonstrate that warming plays a larger role than plant genotype in shaping the seasonal dynamics of the foliar fungal community on oak. These warming-induced shifts in the foliar fungal community may have a pronounced impact on plant health, plant-fungal interactions and ecosystem functions.", "doi": "10.1111/nph.17434", "pmid": "33960441", "labels": {"National Genomics Infrastructure": "Service", "NGI Uppsala (Uppsala Genome Center)": "Service", "Bioinformatics Support for Computational Resources": "Service"}, "xrefs": [{"db": "Dryad", "key": "10.5061/dryad.2jm63xsp9"}], "notes": [], "created": "2021-06-18T05:56:11.909Z", "modified": "2024-01-16T13:48:38.619Z"}]}
