Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Adding N and P to the hyphal compartment markedly increased dry weight of mycorrhizal Norway spruce plants.
- Intervention effect Adding N and P to the hyphal compartment markedly increased N and P content of mycorrhizal Norway spruce plants.
- Observation The hyphal contribution to total N uptake of the plants was 73%, calculated from input and output of nutrient in solution.
- Observation The hyphal contribution to total P uptake of the plants was 76%, calculated from input and output of nutrient in solution.
- Observation Hyphal growth of Paxillus involutus was increased at the site of nutrient solution input.
- Observation Aluminium added to the hyphal compartment as a mass-flow tracer was not detected in the plant compartment, so N and P transfer measurements were not biased by solute movement.
