Mycorrhizal symbiosis is important for many forest ecosystem processes. It links nutrient fluxes between trees and soil, and plays a major role in the uptake of plant phosphorous (P) and nitrogen (N), both of which are often growth limiting elements in temperate forest ecosystems. Besides mycorrhizal fungi, earthworms (EWs) are crucial for nutrient recycling.
