PHYLOGENETIC MAPPING OF ORCHID-FUNGUS ASSOCIATIONS.

Caption

The phylogeny of orchid species (left) and fungal OTUs (right) are mapped with the presence of symbiotic associations (links). The links are colored by trophic mode of orchid species: autotrophy (AU) is gray; partial mycoheterotrophy (PMH) is blue; and full mycoheterotrophy (MH) is purple. The associated fungal types are distinguished by colors in the fungal tree branches: rhizoctonia fungi (RHI) is green; ectomycorrhizal fungi (ECM) is orange; and non-rhizoctonia saprotrophic fungi (SAP) is yellow.
