Project Detail

Evaluation of climatic effects on rhizospheric fungal communities

Name:	Evaluation of climatic effects on rhizospheric fungal communities
Researchers:	Janoušková Martina (head – principal researcher)
Provider:	Komise J. Williama Fulbrighta
Realization from:	2020
Realization to:	2020
Summary:	Plant responses to changing climatic conditions, such as warming and increased aridity, are also mediated by interactions with rhizospheric fungi and their responses to the new conditions. The main aim of the project is to analyze the composition of rhizospheric fungal communities in two long-term transplant experiments along an elevational gradient.Thy will be linked to plant performance in the different soil-climatic conditions and the consequences of the fungal community responses for plant performance will be analyzed.
