Distribution of fungal species with different ecological lifestyle in soil and root samples. OTUs with >97% sequence identity to known species were classified based on their taxonomic affiliation to six different ecological lifestyles. Only OTUs accounting for 90% of overall relative abundance were included in the analysis. All ecological lifestyle groups were significantly different (P < 0.05) from the dashed line, which indicates the same abundance in roots and soil. AM, arbuscular mycorrhizal; ECM, ectomycorrhizal fungal species; OTU, operational taxonomic unit.
