How mycorrhizal associations drive plant population and community biology
BACKGROUND All vascular plants associate with fungi and bacteria—the microbiome. Root
associations with mycorrhizal fungi benefit most plants by enhancing their nutrient access …

Phosphorus limitation, soil‐borne pathogens and the coexistence of plant species in hyperdiverse forests and shrublands
Hyperdiverse forests occur in the lowland tropics, whereas the most species‐rich shrublands
are found in regions such as south‐western Australia (kwongan) and South Africa (fynbos) …

How people domesticated Amazonian forests
For millennia, Amazonian peoples have managed forest resources, modifying the natural
environment in subtle and persistent ways. Legacies of past human occupation are striking …

Plant nutrient‐acquisition strategies drive topsoil microbiome structure and function
Plant nutrient‐acquisition strategies drive soil processes and vegetation performance, but
their effect on the soil microbiome remains poorly understood. This knowledge is important …

Soil fungal networks maintain local dominance of ectomycorrhizal trees
The mechanisms regulating community composition and local dominance of trees in species-
rich forests are poorly resolved, but the importance of interactions with soil microbes is …

An ectomycorrhizal nitrogen economy facilitates monodominance in a neotropical forest
Tropical forests are renowned for their high diversity, yet in many sites a single tree species
accounts for the majority of the individuals in a stand. An explanation for these …

Mycorrhizal dominance reduces local tree species diversity across US forests
Ectomycorrhizas and arbuscular mycorrhizas, the two most widespread plant–fungal
symbioses, are thought to differentially influence tree species diversity, with positive plant …
