The ongoing climate change is characterized by increased temperatures and altered
precipitation patterns. In addition, there has been an increase in both the frequency and …

Plant interactions play a key role in forest ecosystem dynamics. The tallest plants, namely
the overstorey trees, are obvious major drivers, particularly in competition for light. This …

Among abiotic stresses, drought is one of the most important factors limiting plant growth. To
increase their drought tolerance and survival, most plants interact directly with a variety of …

Mycorrhizal fungi have a key role in nitrogen (N) cycling, particularly in boreal and temperate
ecosystems. However, the significance of ectomycorrhizal fungal (EMF) diversity for this …

Cadmium (Cd) displays strong toxicity, high mobility, and cannot be degraded, which poses
a serious threat to the environment. Cenococcum geophilum (C. geophilum) is one of the …

在非生物胁迫中, 干旱胁迫被认为是限制植物生长的重要因素之一. 多种植物能通过与微生物互
作来提高其抗旱性和存活率, 从而引发了一系列科学问题: 植物与微生物互作时如何提升宿主 …

Background and aims Oaks are considered to be drought-and thermo-tolerant tree species.
Nevertheless, species and provenances may differ in their ecological requirements. We …

Forest ecosystems in central Europe are predicted to face an increasing frequency and
severity of summer droughts because of global climate change. European beech and …

Understanding the response characteristics of fine roots to soil drought of different degrees
is essential for revealing the ecological adaptability of trees to different water environments …

We used Pisolithus tinctorius and Cenococcum geophilum to determine the copper (Cu)
resistance of ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi and their potential for improving phytoremediation …
