Her current PhD project at The University of Adelaide involves understanding how arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), which are widespread soil fungi groups, impact soil nutrients loss. Although we have a fundamental understanding of how plants acquire phosphorus (P) via the mycorrhizal pathway, the mechanisms of how these fungi affect P leaching loss from soil is still unclear. To address this knowledge gap, the shifts of P soil pool, P plant uptake and various types of P compounds in leachate under mycorrhizal symbiosis conditions, have been examined. The contribution of soil texture, soil microbial communities and plant roots during the leaching event are also included in this study.
