Abstract:Drought disrupts soil microbial activity and many biogeochemical processes. Although mycorrhizal fungi are known to impact plant functions and nutrient cycling during drought, their effects on drought-exposed soil microbial communities are not well resolved. We used H218O quantitative stable isotope probing (qSIP) to investigate microbial response to water limitation in the hyphospheres of two distinct mycorrhizal lineages (Rhizophagus irregularis and Serendipita bescii) grown with the bioenergy model grass Pa… Show more
