Arbuscular mycorrhizal community composition associated with two plant species in a grassland ecosystem [PDF]
, 2002 Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi are biotrophic symbionts colonizing about two-thirds of land plant species and found in all ecosystems. They are of major importance in plant nutrient supply and their diversity is suggested to be an important ...

Diversity and asynchrony in soil microbial communities stabilizes ecosystem functioning
eLife, 2021 Theoretical and empirical advances have revealed the importance of biodiversity for stabilizing ecosystem functions through time. Despite the global degradation of soils, whether the loss of soil microbial diversity can destabilize ecosystem functioning ...

Experimental salt marsh islands: a model system for novel metacommunity experiments [PDF]
, 2017 Shallow tidal coasts are characterised by shifting tidal flats and emerging or eroding islands above the high tide line. Salt marsh vegetation colonising new habitats distant from existing marshes are an ideal model to investigate metacommunity theory ...
