Rapid transfer of photosynthetic carbon through the plant-soil system in differently managed grasslands [PDF]
, 2011 Plant-soil interactions are central to short-term carbon (C) cycling through the rapid transfer of recently assimilated C from plant roots to soil biota. In grassland ecosystems, changes in C cycling are likely to be influenced by land use and management

Plant communities of the upper Murrumbidgee catchment in New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory [PDF]
, 2013 Native vegetation of the upper Murrumbidgee catchment in southeast NSW and the Australian Capital-Territory (ACT) was classified into 75 plant communities across 18 NSW Vegetation Classes within nine Structural-Formations.

Small-scale spatial pattern and dynamics of experimental plant communities [PDF]
, 2007 Plant-plant interference is inherently local and seed dispersal generally limited. Both processes generate spatial and genetic structure within plant populations and communities that need to be better understood in order to predict dynamic community ...

Plant behaviour and communication [PDF]
Ecology Letters, 2008 AbstractPlant behaviours are defined as rapid morphological or physiological responses to events, relative to the lifetime of an individual. Since Darwin, biologists have been aware that plants behave but it has been an underappreciated phenomenon. The best studied plant behaviours involve foraging for light, nutrients, and water by placing organs ...

Impact of root exudates and plant defense signaling on bacterial communities in the rhizosphere [PDF]
, 2012 Despite significant advances in crop protection, plant diseases cause a 20% yield loss in food and cash crops worldwide. Therefore, interactions between plants and pathogens have been studied in great detail. In contrast, the interplay between plants and

Effect of bacterial inoculation, plant genotype and developmental stage on root-associated and endophytic bacterial communities in potato (Solanum tuberosum) [PDF]
, 2010 Beneficial bacteria interact with plants by colonizing the rhizosphere and roots followed by further spread through the inner tissues, resulting in endophytic colonization.

Genus-Physiognomy-Ecosystem (GPE) System for Satellite-Based Classification of Plant Communities
Ecologies, 2021 Vegetation mapping and monitoring is important as the composition and distribution of vegetation has been greatly influenced by land use change and the interaction of land use change and climate change.

Effects of Plant Genotype and Growth Stage on the Betaproteobacterial Communities Associated with Different Potato Cultivars in Two Fields [PDF]
, 2010 Bacterial communities in the rhizosphere are dynamic and susceptible to changes in plant conditions. Among the bacteria, the betaproteobacteria play key roles in nutrient cycling and plant growth promotion, and hence the dynamics of their community ...

Unpacking a crop diversity hotspot: farmer practice and preferences in Northern Malawi
International Journal of Agricultural Sustainability, 2019 Crop diversity is a key principle of sustainable food production systems. Yet, inter and intra specific diversification is declining in many regions of the world.
