The topic of my PhD thesis is “Community composition and function of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi in forest ecosystems”. In particular, I study AM fungal diversity in roots of forest understorey plant species, the effect of forest management on diversity of AM fungal communities and the effect of different AM fungal communities on various parameters of plant species at a boreal forest site in Central Estonia. My supervisors are Martin Zobel and Maarja Öpik.
