Ectomycorrhizal symbiosis between roots and fungi is founded on the movement of carbon
from plants to fungi, and of soil resources from fungi to plants. Framing this movement as a …

Interactions between soil nitrogen (N) availability, fungal community composition, and soil
organic matter (SOM) regulate soil carbon (C) dynamics in many forest ecosystems, but …

Ectomycorrhizal fungi are essential for nitrogen (N) cycling in many temperate forests and
responsive to anthropogenic N addition, which generally decreases host carbon (C) …

Mycorrhizal plants mediate interactions between their root‐associated fungal symbionts and
insect herbivores. Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) associations tend to boost phloem sap …

Plant–mycorrhizal interactions mediate plant nitrogen (N) limitation and can inform model
projections of the duration and strength of the effect of increasing CO2 on plant growth. We …

The extent to which ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi decay soil organic matter (SOM) has
implications for accurately predicting forest ecosystem response to climate change …

Forests in the northeastern US are experiencing shifts in community composition due to the
northward migration of warm-adapted tree species and certain species' declines (for …

Plant functional traits offer ecologists quantifiable characteristics that may be used to
determine the underlying mechanisms and drivers of processes at scales ranging from …

We present a mechanistic model of coexistence among a mycorrhizal fungus and one or two
plant species that compete for a single nutrient. Plant–fungal coexistence is more likely if the …

Understanding how genetic differences among soil microorganisms regulate spatial patterns
in litter decay remains a persistent challenge in ecology. Despite fine root litter accounting …
