Soil extracellular enzymes drive soil carbon accumulation under elevated CO2
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Human‐driven increases in atmospheric CO2 (eCO2) are stimulating plant growth, thereby increasing the input of plant‐derived carbon into soils. The fate of this additional carbon depends on the capacity of soil microbiomes to decompose and transform organic matter, a ...

Morphological characters of spores and mycorrhizae of Glomus intraradices, as well as spores of Pacispora robiginia, arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi of the phylum Glomeromycota, were described and illustrated.

Multi-trophic consequences of plant genetic variation in sex and growth. [PDF]
There is growing evidence for the influence of plant intraspecific variation on associated multi-trophic communities, but the traits driving such effects are largely unknown.

Biological Flora of Britain and Ireland: Geranium sylvaticum*
Geranium sylvaticum is a perennial forb of upland grasslands, woodlands and riverbanks in northern Britain, with scattered native occurrences also in Wales, central England and Northern Ireland. It has an extensive native range in Europe and Asia. The species is gynodioecious, with individual plants typically female or hermaphrodite.

Contrasting arbuscular mycorrhizal communities colonizing different host plants show a similar response to a soil phosphorus concentration gradient [PDF]
High soil phosphorus (P) concentration is frequently shown to reduce root colonization by arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi, but the influence of P on the diversity of colonizing AM fungi is uncertain.

Plant diversity increases microbial resistance to drought and soil carbon accumulation
We investigated how plant diversity influenced soil microbial processes during moist conditions and an experimental drought. Higher plant diversity increased below‐ground plant input. This increased respiration but not microbial growth, resulting in a build‐up of microbial biomass (1) and also enhanced microbial growth resistance to drought (2).

Most terrestrial plants are colonised by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi but vary in the degree to which they benefit from and depend on these fungi. Here we show that plants can make the interaction with mycorrhizal fungi more beneficial to themselves by regulating the chemical composition of organic compounds released by plant roots into the soil ...

Soil‐Borne Pathogens Reflect Agricultural Land‐Use Legacies
Legacy effects profoundly shape the distribution and diversity of terrestrial communities, but are difficult to grasp over longer timescales. Here, we use historical land‐use maps to study lingering legacies of historical land use on present‐day microbial communities.
