Nitrogen (N) addition influences fine root growth and mycorrhizal symbiosis formation, the
two dominant strategies for tree nutrient acquisition. Arbuscular mycorrhizae (AM) and …

Global increase in nitrogen (N) deposition influences the belowground allocation of plant
photosynthates and the formation of roots and rhizosphere-associated symbionts as well as …

The identification of plant functional traits that can be linked to ecosystem processes is of
wide interest, especially for predicting vegetational responses to climate change. Root …

In most cases, both roots and mycorrhizal fungi are needed for plant nutrient foraging.
Frequently, the colonization of roots by arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi seems to be …

While it is established that increasing atmospheric inorganic nitrogen (N) deposition reduces
ectomycorrhizal fungal biomass and shifts the relative abundances of fungal species, little is …

Enhanced nitrogen (N) availability in temperate forests has altered ecosystem carbon (C)
and N cycling. Recent research has shown that these alterations lead to reductions in …

Plants compete for nutrients using a range of strategies. We investigated nutrient foraging
within nutrient hot‐spots simultaneously available to plant species with diverse root traits …

The roots of the majority of tree species are associated with either arbuscular mycorrhizal
(AM) or ectomycorrhizal (EM) fungi. The absorptive roots of tree species also vary widely in …

Globally, forests are impacted by atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition, affecting their
structure and functioning above and below ground. All trees form mutualistic root symbioses …

Previous research on the effects of tree species on soil processes has focused primarily on
the role of leaf litter inputs. We quantified the extent to which arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) …
