Abstract The morphological, reproductive and physiological traits of fungi are presented, followed by their contrasting biotic interactions with organisms living in soils, particularly mycorrhiza (the symbiotic associations with plant roots) that are crucial to the functioning of terrestrial ecosystems. Their broad range of metabolic capacities indicate that fungi are a main group of the soil microbiome, importantly participating in pedogenesis and element cycling, and of the plant holobiont. Recent integration of microbiological, physiological, new molecular ecological techniques and bioinformatics has dramatically increased knowledge of soil fungi, their role in soil functioning and potential development of more sustainable soil and land-use practices.
