      Mundra, Sunil; Kauserud, Håvard; Økland, Tonje; Nordbakken, Jørn-Frode; Ransedokken, Yngvild Eidissen; Kjønaas, O. Janne (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-03-20)
      The replacement of native birch with Norway spruce has been initiated in Norway to increase long-term carbon storage in forests. However, there is limited knowledge on the impacts that aboveground changes will have on the ...
    • Soil depth matters: shift in composition and inter-kingdom co-occurrence patterns of microorganisms in forest soils 

      Mundra, Sunil; Kjønaas, O. Janne; Morgado, Luis; Krabberød, Anders Kristian; Ransedokken, Yngvild; Kauserud, Håvard (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-02-06)
      Soil depth represents a strong physiochemical gradient that greatly affects soil-dwelling microorganisms. Fungal communities are typically structured by soil depth, but how other microorganisms are structured is less known. ...
    • Tree species replacement from birch to spruce affects eukaryome in boreal forest soil 

      Mundra, Sunil; Loganathachetti, Dinesh Sanka; Kauserud, Håvard; Fiore-Donno, Anna Maria; Økland, Tonje; Nordbakken, Jørn-Frode; Kjønaas, O. Janne (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024-01-11)
      Large-scale replacements of native birch with spruce have been carried out in Western Norway for economic reasons. This tree species shift potentially affects biotic components such as the eucaryome, consisting of microscopic ...
