Current research interest:
> Plant-soil-microorganism interactions
> Mycorrhizal interactions
> Key processes for plant nutrition, element (C,N,P) cycling
As soil microbial necromass (i.e. death microbial biomass) acts as an essential phosphorous reservoir in forest nutrition, the identification of key players, processes and controls of P mobilisation in the rhizosphere as well as allocation, usage and cycling of P within vegetation will be investigated.
