M. paleacea displays more diversity than M. polymorpha in wild conditions, but the reverse is true for in vitro conditions. There is a slight decrease in diversity in P. muricata without endo-mycorrhizae. Diversity was estimated via individual study clustering. Sequences were publicly available, as stated in their publications.
