N and P are essential macronutrients for all organisms. How shifts in the availability of N or P
affect fungal communities in temperate forests is not well understood. Here, we conducted a …

Phosphorus (P) is an important nutrient, whose plant-available form phosphate is often low
in natural forest ecosystems. Mycorrhizal fungi mine the soil for P and supply their host with …

Phosphorus (P) is an important nutrient, whose concentrations are declining in many
European forest ecosystems. Here, we selected five old-aged temperate beech (Fagus …

Many forests are affected by chronic acid deposition, which can lower soil pH and limit the
availability of nutrients such as phosphorus (P), but the response of mycorrhizal fungi to …

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

Nitrogen (N) availability is known to influence ectomycorrhizal fungal components, such as
fungal community composition, biomass of root tips and production of mycelia, but effects …

Species‐specific differences in nutrient acquisition strategies allow for complementary use
of resources among plants in mixtures, which may be further shaped by mycorrhizal …

Soil fungi, especially the functional guilds of saprotrophs and symbiotrophs, play a central
role in ecosystem processes such as decomposition and plant nutrient acquisition. Fungal …

Although much is known about how trees and their associated microbes influence nitrogen
cycling in temperate forest soils, less is known about biotic controls over phosphorus (P) …

Increases in summer droughts and nitrogen (N) deposition have raised concerns of
widespread biodiversity loss and nutrient imbalances, but our understanding of the …
