Arbuscular mycorrhizal and ectomycorrhizal symbioses are among the most important
drivers of terrestrial ecosystem dynamics. Historically, the two types of symbioses have been …

Plant–mycorrhizal fungal interactions are ubiquitous in forest ecosystems. While
ectomycorrhizal plants and their fungi generally dominate temperate forests, arbuscular …

Many physicochemical and biotic aspects of the soil environment determine the community
composition of bacteria. In this study, we examined the effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal …

Trees associating with different mycorrhizas often differ in their effects on litter
decomposition, nutrient cycling, soil organic matter (SOM) dynamics, and plant-soil …

In forest ecosystems, virtually all plant roots are mycorrhizal and enhanced nutrition and
growth of forest trees are the result. However, less is known about the different effects of …

Plant-soil microbial interactions have moved into focus as an important mechanism for
understanding plant coexistence and composition of communities. Both arbuscular …

Elucidating symbiotic relationships between arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and plants
contributes to a better understanding of their reciprocally dependent coexistence and …

In this chapter, we review recent literature pertaining to the debate linking biodiversity and
ecosystem functioning, highlighting the role of arbuscular mycorrhizae. We suggest that the …

Most terrestrial plants interact with diverse clades of mycorrhizal and root-endophytic fungi in
their roots. Through belowground plant–fungal interactions, dominant plants can benefit by …

Recent studies found that the majority of shrub and tree species are associated with both
arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) and ectomycorrhizal (EM) fungi. However, our knowledge on …
