Ectomycorrhizal fungal community response to warming and rainfall reduction differs between co-occurring temperate-boreal ecotonal Pinus saplings.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Understanding the responses of ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi and their tree hosts to warming and reduced soil water availability under realistic future climate scenarios is essential, yet few studies have investigated how combined global change stressors impact ECM fungal community richness and composition as well as host performance. In this study, we leveraged a long-term factorial warming (ambient, + 1.7 ºC, + 3.2 ºC) and rainfall reduction (ambient, 30% reduced rainfall) experiment in northern Minnesota, USA to investigate the responses of two congeneric hosts with varying drought tolerances and their associated ECM fungal communities to a gradient of soil moisture induced by a combination of warming and rainfall reduction. Soil drying had host-specific effects; the less drought tolerant Pinus strobus had decreased stem growth and lower ECM fungal community richness (fewer ECM fungal Operational Taxonomic Units, OTUs), while the more drought tolerant Pinus banksiana experienced no decline in stem growth but had an altered ECM fungal community composition under drier, warmer soils. Taken together, the results of this study suggest that the combined effects of warming and decreased precipitation will largely be additive in terms of their impact on host performance and ECM fungal community richness, but that drier and warmer soil conditions may also differentially impact specific ECM fungal genera independently of host performance.
