Figure 2. Fungal diversity and composition associated with Bistorta vivipara.

(A) Relative abundance of fungal orders in the Bavarian Alps, the Swabian Alps and other sites globally. Only the orders that are present at the sites studied here are shown for clarity. (B) Number of fungal species hypotheses (SHs) associated with B. vivipara in two mountain sites located in the Bavarian Alps and the Swabian Alps (Germany), as well as in other sites globally (combined). The number of SHs that are shared between these three groups (Bavarian Alps-Other and Bavarian Alps-Swabian Alps) is also shown.
