Abstract: Development of fine roots and formation of symbiosis with arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi represent two strategies for plants to acquire nutrient and water from soil. Here, we elucidated how fine root development and symbolized mycorrhizal… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2022.894365
Abstract: Nitrogen (N) addition can increase the vegetative growth, improve the plant production, and restore the degraded terrestrial ecosystems. But, it simultaneously aggravates the soil phosphorus (P) limitation for plant growth, thus affecting its positive effects… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/plants11070966
Abstract: The N deposition rate is notably increased in China, especially in the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau (QTP). How plants respond to the projected N deposition on the alpine steppe is still in debate. In this study, to… read more here.
