Responses of absorptive root and mycorrhizal colonization of Chinese fir (Cunninghamia lanceolata) to varied environmental conditions

Ying-Chun Liao et al.

Summary: This study investigated the relationship between root tip traits and environmental variables in Chinese fir plantations in Subtropical China. The results showed that root branching is more sensitive to environmental conditions than mycorrhizal symbioses. The branching ratio of Chinese fir was positively correlated with mean annual temperature, but negatively correlated with soil carbon, soil nitrogen, and soil pH. Surprisingly, the AM colonization of absorptive roots was not as sensitive to environmental factors as branching ratio, but it was positively correlated with soil pH. The study confirmed that environmental conditions significantly regulate fine root branching and its mycorrhizal symbioses, but with different controlling variables.
