Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) significantly contribute to plant resource acquisition and play important roles in mediating interactions soil carbon (C) dynamics. However, it remains unclear how AMF communities respond climate change. We assessed impacts of warming precipitation alterations (30% increase or decrease) on communities, examined major ecological processes shaping the community assemblage a Tibetan alpine meadow. Our results showed that increased root biomass, available...
Abstract The ongoing global change is multi‐faceted, but the interactive effects of multiple drivers on persistence soil carbon (C) are poorly understood. We examined warming, reactive nitrogen (N) inputs (12 g N m −2 year −1 ) and altered precipitation (+ or − 30% ambient) aggregates mineral‐associated C in a 4 manipulation experiment with semi‐arid grassland China's Loess Plateau. Our results showed that absence inputs, additions significantly enhanced aggregation promoted coupling between...
Summary Climate warming is faster in the Arctic than global average. Nutrient availability tundra soil expected to increase by climate through (i) accelerated nutrient mobilization surface layers, and (ii) increased thawing depths during growing season which increases accessibility of nutrients deeper layers. Both processes may initiate shifts vegetation composition. It important understand effects these two on plant functional types. We manipulated depth at a Northeast‐Siberian site...
Shrub expansion is common in the tundra biome and has been linked to climate warming. However, underlying mechanisms are still not fully understood. This study aimed investigate seasonal vertical rooting patterns of different plant functional types, which important for predicting vegetation dynamics. We harvested root samples by soil coring investigated changes biomass distribution across a gradient, focusing on differences between graminoids dwarf shrubs, at northeastern Siberian tundra....
Climate warming is known to increase the aboveground productivity of tundra ecosystems. Recently, belowground biomass receiving more attention, but effects climate on remain unclear. Enhanced understanding component important in context warming, since most carbon sequestered these In this study we synthesized published data from 36 field studies spanning a mean annual temperature (MAT) gradient −20 °C 0 across biome, and determined relationships between different plant pools MAT. Our results...
Introduction Bacterial symbionts are prevalent in arthropods globally and play a vital role the fitness resistance of hosts. While several symbiont infections have been identified white-backed planthopper Sogatella furcifera, impact environmental factors on microbiota within S. furcifera remains elusive. Methods In this study, total 142 individuals from 18 populations were collected 14 locations across six countries (China, Thailand, Myanmar, Cambodia, Vietnam, Laos) analyzed with 2bRAD-M...
Abstract Wildfires burn approximately 3%–4% of the global land area annually, resulting in massive emissions greenhouse gases and air pollutants. Over past two decades, there has been a declining trend both burned wildfire emissions. This is largely attributed to decrease activity Africa, which accounts for substantial portion total However, northern high-latitude regions Asia North America have witnessed interannual variability activity, with several severe events occurring recent years....
Abstract Species traits may determine plant interactions along with soil microbiome, further shaping plant–soil feedbacks (PSFs). However, how modulate PSFs and, consequently, the dominance of functional groups remains unclear. We used a combination field surveys and two‐phase PSF experiment to investigate whether forbs graminoids differed in their trait–PSF associations. When grown forb‐conditioned soils, experienced stronger negative feedbacks, while positive feedbacks....
Abstract Anthropogenically caused nitrogen (N) enrichment may stimulate both photosynthetic carbon (C) fixation and infection of foliar pathogens. However, the interactive effects N input fungal pathogens on ecosystem C cycling are poorly understood. Using a 6‐year field experiment with fungicide application in Tibetan alpine meadow, we examined how influence sequestration independently combination, possibly resulting interactions between Nitrogen increased gross productivity (GEP)...
Abstract Plants enhance nutrient uptake in heterogeneous environments through selective root placement. Many studies have documented that plants grow better under than homogeneous distribution, but comprehensive syntheses are relatively few. In a meta-analysis, we examined the effects of patch scale and contrast on plant responses by synthesizing heterogeneity foraging growth 131 comparative studies. Plant to were phylogenetically conserved, response shoot biomass was significantly...
