“…Previous studies have also revealed that local environmental conditions, in particular soil nutrients, temperature, and precipitation can influence specific root tip traits including abundance, density, and colonization by mycorrhizal fungi (Helmisaari et al., ; Kjøller et al., ; Leppälammi‐Kujansuu et al., ). Furthermore, trade‐offs with mycorrhizal fungi may mediate plant responses to soil resource availability (Chen et al., ; Li, Liu, McCormack, Ma, & Guo, ; Liu et al., ). Together, these adjustments in patterns of resource allocation across the root system are likely vital strategies for tree species to acclimate to different environmental conditions (Leppälammi‐Kujansuu et al., ; Svistoonoff et al., ; Zadworny et al., ).…”
