Contrasting response of root traits of arbuscular mycorrhizal and ectomycorrhizal trees to phosphorus availability in subtropical forests

The dataset includes a field survey and a soil P manipulation experiment in a subtropical forest, to investigate how root functional traits, mycorrhizal colonization and putative pathogen infection of arbuscular mycorrhizal and ectomycorrhizal tree seedlings respond to gradients of soil P.

本数据集涵盖亚热带森林的野外调查与土壤磷操控实验，旨在探究丛枝菌根（arbuscular mycorrhizal）及外生菌根（ectomycorrhizal）树木幼苗的根系功能性状、菌根定殖水平与疑似病原菌侵染对土壤磷梯度的响应规律。
