Other claims from this paper (6)
- Mechanism Endophytic fungi may move between Cynomorium songaricum and its host Nitraria tangutorum through their vascular connection.
- Observation Fungal composition similarity was higher between C. songaricum and parasitized N. tangutorum than between C. songaricum and non-parasitized hosts.
- Association Endophytic fungal composition increased as C. songaricum developed from sprouting to above ground emergence.
- Mechanism Endophytic fungal composition subsequently decreased, possibly because fungi recognized and responded to the host.
- Observation Shared fungal OTUs increased across interactions involving C. songaricum and parasitized and non-parasitized N. tangutorum.
- Intervention effect Fusarium isolates promoted C. songaricum seed germination.
