“…Mycorrhizal fungal hyphae are an important C pool in soil. Mycorrhizal fungi and fine roots transfer large proportions of primary production into soils, but the estimates vary substantially across studies (Janssens et al, ; Pausch & Kuzyakov, ; Sommer, Dippold, Flessa, & Kuzyakov, ). Additionally, the biological N fixation and nutrient mobilization from deep soils have increased soil fertility, prompting C sequestration (Araujo, Iwata, Jr, & Xavier, ; Balakrishna, Lakshmipathy, Bagyaraj, & Ashwin, ; Vallejo, Roldan, & Dick, ).…”
