Tree mycorrhizal association types control biodiversity-productivity relationship in a subtropical forest
Mycorrhizae are symbiotic associations between terrestrial plants and fungi in which fungi
obtain nutrients in exchange for plant photosynthates. However, it remains unclear how …

Global imprint of mycorrhizal fungi on whole-plant nutrient economics
Mycorrhizal fungi are critical members of the plant microbiome, forming a symbiosis with the
roots of most plants on Earth. Most plant species partner with either arbuscular or …

Complementarity in nutrient foraging strategies of absorptive fine roots and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi across 14 coexisting subtropical tree species
In most cases, both roots and mycorrhizal fungi are needed for plant nutrient foraging.

Do arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi affect the allometric partition of host plant biomass to shoots and roots? A meta-analysis of studies from 1990 to 2010
Arbuscular mycorrhizas (AM) are ubiquitous root symbioses with often pervasive effects on
the plant host, one of which may be above-and belowground biomass allocation. A meta …
