In situ13CO2 pulse‐labelling of upland grassland demonstrates a rapid pathway of carbon flux from arbuscular mycorrhizal mycelia to the soil
Abstract
Summary: The flux of pulse‐derived 13 C from upland pasture plants to the external mycelium of their arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbionts was traced and quantified over a 7‐d post‐labelling period. Mesh cores, which allowed in‐growth of native AM mycelium but were impenetrable to roots, were inserted into unlimed and limed plots and the surrounding vegetation was exposed to 13 CO 2 at ambient CO 2 concentrations. Release of 13 CO 2 from cores colonized by AM mycelium peaked 9–14 h after labelling and declined within 24 h after severance of mycelial connections to roots. Between 5 and 8% of carbon lost by plants was respired by AM mycelium over the first 21 h after labelling. Liming increased the amount of carbon fixed by plants and subsequently allocated to fine roots and AM mycelium. The results demonstrate for the first time under field conditions that AM mycelia provide a rapid and important pathway of carbon flux from plants to the soil and atmosphere.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
