Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect EcM fungal-colonized pine seedlings had higher photosynthetic rates under low-water conditions
- Intervention effect EcM fungal-colonized pine seedlings had higher water-use efficiency under low-water conditions
- Intervention effect EcM fungal-colonized pine seedlings had elevated nitrogen and phosphorus contents under low-water conditions
- Intervention effect A prolonged low-water regime reduced root colonization by the EcM fungus
- Intervention effect P. involutus-inoculated seedlings had increased ammonium assimilation under well-watered conditions during recovery
- Intervention effect P. involutus-inoculated seedlings appeared to have higher chlorophyll production during recovery, possibly due to nutrient availability or fungal demand
- Recommendation P. involutus is a valuable strategy for forest regeneration in temperate climates facing drought episodes
- Observation Under a moderate water regime (30% field capacity) the fungal effect of P. involutus was not evident
