FungalTraits vs. FUNGuild: Comparison of Ecological Functional Assignments of Leaf- and Needle-Associated Fungi Across 12 Temperate Tree Species

Abstract: Recently, a new annotation tool “FungalTraits” was created based on the previous FUNGuild and FunFun databases, which has attracted high attention in the scientific community. These databases were widely used to gain more information from fungal sequencing datasets by assigning fungal functional traits. More than 1500 publications so far employed FUNGuild and the aim of this study is to compare this successful database with the recent FungalTraits database. Quality and quantity of the assignment by FUNGuild an… Show more

“…The FungalTraits database was used to determine the dominant fungal taxa’s ecological information and functional assignment [ 36 , 37 ]. This database categorizes the functional assignment into various “traits”, such as primary and secondary lifestyles, endophytic interaction capacity, aquatic habitat, and many others.…”

“…DNA extraction and Illumina sequencing were done according to Tanunchai et al (2022). In our previous study (Tanunchai et al, 2022), we compared FUNGuild and FungalTraits to assign fungal ASVs to lichenized fungi; however; we did not tackle the ecological aspect of those datasets.…”

“…DNA extraction and Illumina sequencing were done according to Tanunchai et al (2022). In our previous study (Tanunchai et al, 2022), we compared FUNGuild and FungalTraits to assign fungal ASVs to lichenized fungi; however; we did not tackle the ecological aspect of those datasets. Briefly, for the preparation for the DNA extraction, up to 10 healthy-looking leaves and needles were carefully selected from five branches per tree individual to avoid contamination from the fungi living on branches.…”
