Nitrogen (N) deposition and carbon (C) addition significantly influence the dynamics of plant–microbe interactions, particularly altering the symbiotic relationship between plants and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). However, the effects and underlying mechanisms of labile C input on the relation...
