Soil fungi appear to have a retarding rather than a stimulating role on soil apatite weathering
Vegetation stimulates, in general, soil mineral weathering. It has been hypothesized that plant-associated microorganisms, especially ectomycorrhizal fungi play a major role in this process. We studied apatite...
