Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi alleviate elevated temperature and nitrogen deposition- induced warming potential by reducing soil N2O emissions in a temperate meadow

Nitrous oxide (N2O) is one of the most important greenhouse gases and has the potential to aggravate global warming. Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi form mutualistic associations with most terrestrial plants, which can help plant nitrogen (N) uptake and have also been shown to reduce soil N2O emis...
