Nitrogen isotopes link mycorrhizal fungi and plants to nitrogen dynamics
In this review, we synthesize field and culture studies of the 15N/14N (expressed as δ15 N)
of autotrophic plants, mycoheterotrophic plants, parasitic plants, soil, and mycorrhizal fungi …

Carbon: nitrogen stoichiometry in forest ecosystems during stand development
Aim Carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) stoichiometry is a critical indicator of biogeochemical
coupling in terrestrial ecosystems. However, our current understanding of C: N stoichiometry …

Plant–soil interactions alter nitrogen and phosphorus dynamics in an advancing subarctic treeline
Treelines advance due to climate warming. The impacts of this vegetation shift on plant–soil
nutrient cycling are still uncertain, yet highly relevant as nutrient availability stimulates tree …
