Almost all land plants form symbiotic associations with mycorrhizal fungi. These below‐
ground fungi play a key role in terrestrial ecosystems as they regulate nutrient and carbon …

Mycorrhizal fungi benefit plants by improved mineral nutrition and protection against stress,
yet information about fundamental differences among mycorrhizal types in fungi and trees …

Understanding the context dependence of ecosystem responses to global changes requires
the development of new conceptual frameworks. Here we propose a framework for …

Dual‐mycorrhizal plants are capable of associating with fungi that form characteristic
arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) and ectomycorrhizal (EM) structures. Here, we address the …

Fungi play many essential roles in ecosystems. They facilitate plant access to nutrients and
water, serve as decay agents that cycle carbon and nutrients through the soil, water and …

"… a number of chapters provide excellent summaries of the modern methods available for
studying fungal ecology, along with those more traditional methods that are still extremely …

Soil phosphorus response curves of plants with and without mycorrhizas reflect two different,
but complementary, phenomena. The first, plant responsiveness to mycorrhizas, is …

▪ Abstract Mycorrhizae regulate elemental and energy flows in terrestrial ecosystems. We
understand much of how mycorrhizae work, but integrating all possible mechanisms into a …

Mycorrhizae play a critical role in nutrient capture from soils. Arbuscular mycorrhizae (AM)
and ectomycorrhizae (EM) are the most important mycorrhizae in agricultural and natural …

Ephemeral roots have essential roles in plant and ecosystem functioning. In forests, roots
account for a major component of carbon cycling, yet few studies have examined ranges of …
