Table 7.

Summary of abundance, biogeography and substrate affinity of the most common species of the genus Chloridium and several soil fungi that are generally considered hyperabundant. Soil fungal taxa are ‘Species hypotheses’ (SHs) defined by the UNITE database and represent clusters with 98.5 % sequence similarity. Species hypothesis SH1517985.08FU classified by UNITE as Chaetosphaeriaceae sp. contains the ITS sequence of Chloridium detriticola var. detriticola. For taxa without a Species hypothesis (i.e. data from this study), the analysis was performed using the full similarity rule (Exact hit option in Sequence Search in GlobalFungi). For taxa with Species hypothesis the taxon search using the particular SH was performed in GlobalFungi database. The primary data are in Table S2.
