The sustainability these forests relies on the symbiosis established between tree species and tomycorrhizal (EM) fungal community. Oaks provide fungi with photosynthesized products that are used to generate an underground fangal network. In turn this network enlarges hosts nutrient and water foraging area and allows the exchange of resources between connected tree individuals that may be of the same or different species. In addition, oak seedlings rapidly integrate into the EM fungal network enhancing their nutrient acquisition. Therefore the EM community directly affects the productivity and regeneration of oak forest.
