Spatial Separation of Litter Decomposition and Mycorrhizal Nitrogen Uptake in a Boreal Forest

$\bullet$Our understanding of how saprotrophic and mycorrhizal fungi interact to recirculate carbon and nutrients from plant litter and soil organic matter is limited by poor understanding of their spatiotemporal dynamics.$\bullet$In order to investigate how different functional groups of fungi cont...
