Mycorrhizal fungi form one of the most widespread and ancient symbiotic associations with land plants, underpinning critical ecosystem functions. Through intricate mutualistic relationships, these ...
Background and aims Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi are abundant in grassland ecosystem. We assessed AM hyphal contributions to soil CO2 efflux across plant functional groups to better quantify AM ...
Aims We tested whether a nurse-plant effect depends on target-seedling tolerance to soil acidity and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in an acid soil. Methods A mesocosm experiment was used to ...
