Endophytic Fungus Drives Nodulation and N2 Fixation Attributable to Specific Root Exudates

Endophytic fungi play an important role in balancing the ecosystem and boosting host growth; however, the underpinning mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here, we found that endophytic fungal colonization with P. liquidambaris significantly increased the productivity, nodulation, and N2 fixation o...
