Synthetic microbial community promotes seedling growth of Chinese fir via dissolving phosphorus and modifying rhizosphere microbial community.

Phosphorus (P) is an essential nutrient for plant growth, yet its availability in soil is severely constrained by fixation into insoluble forms that plants cannot directly utilize. Although phosphate-solubilizing microorganisms (PSM) represent a promising strategy to mobilize soil P, the functional potential of endophy...
