Nitrogen isotope (δ 15 N) patterns in plants may provide insight into plant N dynamics. Here,
two analytical models of N‐isotope cycling in plants and mycorrhizal fungi were tested, as …

Nitrogen isotope measurements may provide insights into changing interactions among
plants, mycorrhizal fungi, and soil processes across environmental gradients. Here, we …

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 …

The hyphae of ectomycorrhizal and ericoid mycorrhizal fungi proliferate in nitrogen (N)-
limited forests and tundra where the availability of inorganic N is low; under these conditions …

Abstract Nitrogen isotopes (15 N/14 N ratios, expressed as δ 15 N values) are useful
markers of the mycorrhizal role in plant nitrogen supply because discrimination against 15 N …

An experiment was performed to find out whether ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi alter the
nitrogen (N) isotope composition, δ15N, of N during the transport of N from the soil through …

Ratios of nitrogen (N) isotopes in leaves could elucidate underlying patterns of N cycling
across ecological gradients. To better understand global‐scale patterns of N cycling, we …

The successful use of natural abundances of carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) isotopes in the
study of ecosystem dynamics suggests that isotopic measurements could yield new insights …

Trees reduce their carbon (C) allocation to roots and mycorrhizal fungi in response to high
nitrogen (N) additions, which should reduce the N retention capacity of forests. The time …

In this study we show that the natural abundance of the nitrogen isotope 15, δ 15 N, of plants
in heath tundra and at the tundra-forest ecocline is closely correlated with the presence and …
