Darkness visible: reflections on underground ecology [PDF]
, 2005 1 Soil science and ecology have developed independently, making it difficult for ecologists to contribute to urgent current debates on the destruction of the global soil resource and its key role in the global carbon cycle.

Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi Mitigate Drought‐Enhanced Herbivore Performance in Maize
Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Drought events are becoming increasingly frequent and intense, posing major challenges to crop productivity. Beyond direct water stress, drought can indirectly affect plants by enhancing herbivore performance. While arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) have been proposed to alleviate drought stress and to enhance plant resistance to herbivory ...

Plant Biology, EarlyView.Mature beech trees redistributed soil water, equal to ca. 10% of stand transpiration, from deeper moist soils to dry surface soils, where it was taken up by seedlings of different tree species. Abstract Hydraulic redistribution is considered a crucial dryland mechanism that may be important in temperate environments facing increased soil drying–wetting

A Stimulatory Role for Cytokinin in the Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Symbiosis of Pea [PDF]
, 2019 The arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis between terrestrial plants and AM fungi is regulated by plant hormones. For most of these, a role has been clearly assigned in this mutualistic interaction; however, there are still contradictory reports for ...

Impact of emerging compound droughts on forests: A water supply and demand perspective
Plant Biology, EarlyView.This review examines the physiological and ecological responses of trees to emerging compound droughts from a water demand and supply perspective, as well as the role of acclimation and consequences for ecosystem‐level functions. Abstract The intensification of climate change‐induced drought results in unprecedented tree and forest die‐offs worldwide ...
