e0“Endophytic microbial communities in scion leaves substantially impact the growth efficiency of apple trees (Malus × domestica Borkh.)”
e1“Compared with the M. sieversii scion, the aboveground (+49.28%) and root (+62.77%) biomass of juvenile trees grafted with the Hanfu scion significantly increased”
e2“with the net photosynthetic rate and stomatal conductance rising by 20.40% and 42.26%, respectively”

- Intervention effect Aboveground biomass of juvenile trees grafted with the Hanfu scion increased by 49.28% compared with the M. sieversii scion
- Intervention effect Root biomass of juvenile trees grafted with the Hanfu scion increased by 62.77% compared with the M. sieversii scion
- Intervention effect Net photosynthetic rate of Hanfu scion leaves rose by 20.40% compared with the M. sieversii scion
- Intervention effect Sucrose synthase activity in Hanfu scion leaves increased compared with the M. sieversii and Fuji scions
- Intervention effect Carbon accumulation in Hanfu scion leaves increased compared with the M. sieversii and Fuji scions
- Intervention effect Carbon content and carbon-to-nitrogen ratio decreased in Hanfu scion leaves compared with the M. sieversii and Fuji scions
- Intervention effect Diversity and abundance of endophytic bacteria and fungi in Hanfu scion leaves were higher than in the M. sieversii and Fuji scions
- Observation Hanfu scion leaves were predominantly enriched with the phyla Firmicutes and Ascomycota and the genus Salinicoccus
- Association Leaf endophytic bacterial and fungal communities are closely associated with leaf physiological traits
- Association Correlations between leaf physiology and endophytic fungal communities are particularly significant
- Association Leaf intercellular CO2, chlorophyll b, C/N and carbon accumulation were implicated in enriching dominant endophytic phyla and genera
- Mechanism Leaf photosynthetic properties and carbon and nitrogen metabolism affect leaf carbon and nitrogen accumulation through endophytic fungal diversity, thereby affecting apple tree growth
