- Intervention effect Spore germination was unchanged after zero and one month at 25°C.
- Intervention effect Spore germination decreased rapidly after three months at 25°C.
- Intervention effect Cold storage significantly increased germination of spores, hyphae and root fragments compared with 25°C.
- Association Hyphal germination rate and proportion of long germ tubes significantly increased with cold storage time.
- Mechanism Increased hyphal germination and long germ tube proportions were conducive to colonization.
- Intervention effect Cold storage significantly increased hyphal colonization compared with 25°C.
- Mechanism Cold storage may break propagule dormancy and activate enzymes to promote germination and colonization, requiring further investigation.
