The decomposition of ectomycorrhizal fungal necromass (2016, background): “Langley and Hungate (2003) highlighted the potential influence of EM fungal colonization on the decomposition of fine roots, hypothesizing that EM colonizationwould reduce the decomposition rate of fine roots.”
Tracking carbon from the atmosphere to the rhizosphere (2005, background): “It is likely that AM turnover rates will differ among ecosystems depending on longevity of roots and hyphal networks ( Langley & Hungate 2003 ).”
Heterogeneity of individual roots within the fine root architecture: causal links between physiological and ecosystem functions (2007, background): “However, the relationship between decomposition rates and N and lignin concentrations in fi ne roots was less accurate than the stronger relationship in leaf litter (Langley and Hungate 2003; Silver and Miya 2001).”
Plant functional types: are we getting any closer to the Holy Grail? (2007, background): “Other types of trophic interactions that influence community structure and ecosystem processes are associations with soil microbes, for instance mycorrhizae (van der Heijden et al. 1998, Klironomos et al. 2000, Langley & Hungate 2003, Read et al. 2004, Rillig 2004).”
The mycorrhizal-associated nutrient economy: a new framework for predicting carbon-nutrient couplings in temperate forests. (2013, background): “One reason for this knowledge gap is that AM tree species are often reported to be largely restricted to the forest understory or early stages of succession (Langley & Hungate, 2003; Read & Perez-Moreno, 2003; Chapman et al., 2006).”
Decomposition of the finest root branching orders: linking belowground dynamics to fine-root function and structure (2011, background): “…pigmented roots to microbial decomposition is that these roots are typically heavily colonized by mycorrhizal fungi, which may have important chemical consequences for decomposers that are not captured by typical measures (Langley and Hungate 2003, Guo et al. 2008a, Valenzuela-Estrada et al. 2008).”
Biochar in bioenergy cropping systems: impacts on soil faunal communities and linked ecosystem processes (2013, background): “Alterations to litter quality by fungal decomposition can also change the community composition of other decomposers, such as earthworms and saprophagous microarthropods (Langley & Hungate, 2003).”
Plant communities as drivers of soil respiration: pathways, mechanisms, and significance for global change (2011, background): “In addition, mycorrhizal colonization affects losses of C from the root system via315 respiration, decomposition and consumption (Langley and Hungate, 2003; Hughes et al., 2008).316 Therefore, the abundance and types of mycorrhizae occurring in an ecosystem have a potentially317 large influence on…”
Consequences of More Intensive Forestry for the Sustainable Management of Forest Soils and Waters (2011, background): “easily accessed by the trees [20], the decomposition of large macromolecules to peptides, amino acids and inorganic N-forms, and the relationships between trees and their symbiotic mycorrhizal fungi are particularly important to the supply of N to primary producers [21,22].”
Initial melanin and nitrogen concentrations control the decomposition of ectomycorrhizal fungal litter (2014, background): “The common fungal cellwall component, chitin, has been thought to contribute to the recalcitrance of fungal tissues (Treseder and Allen, 2000; Langley and Hungate, 2003; Godbold et al., 2006).”
Sugar maple and nitrogen cycling in the forests of Eastern North America. (2004, background): “Ecto- and arbuscular mycorrhizae differ in N cycling properties ( Langley and Hungate 2003 ).”
