Vegetation dominantly shapes the elevational patterns of archaeal and protistan communities and their ecological functions in the Hengduan Mountains, Tibetan Plateau

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract While elevational patterns of soil bacterial and fungal communities in mountain ecosystems have been well documented, the assembly processes of soil archaeal and protistan communities, and their linkage with ecosystem multifunctionality (EMF), remain poorly understood ...

Abiotic conditions along altitude shape plant‐fungal associations by influencing both fungal availability and association strength

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, EarlyView.
In a large‐scale field survey in Fennoscandia, we investigated how the selected fungal communities within different Bistorta vivipara plant compartments varied with altitude, respective to the available fungal species pool in the soil and surrounding plants.

Climatic disequilibrium modulates canopy service across abiotic stress gradients

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, EarlyView.
The results presented indicate that abiotic stressors, combined with climatic disequilibrium, modulate the canopy service. Consequently, under future climate change scenarios that may increase stress and climatic disequilibrium, canopy service will become crucial for the maintenance of the recruiting community.

Vegetation structural complexity uniquely captures competition between vascular plants and bryophytes over succession

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, EarlyView.
As grasslands develop after glacial retreat, plants grow taller and denser over time, changing the structure of the entire community. 3D‐laser scans reveal that increasing structural complexity limits bryophyte diversity by homogenizing habitats and captures competitive effects that remain undetected by conventional vegetation surveys.
