The gap formation due to forest thinning regulates the understorey microclimate, ground
vegetation, and soil biodiversity. However, little is known about abundant and rare taxa's …

Salinization poses great threats to soil fungal communities that would cause the losses of
ecosystems services. Soil fungal communities are composed of different functional guilds …

The patterns and underlying ecological (eg environmental filtering) and historical (eg priority
effects) drivers of beta diversity are scale‐dependent, but generally difficult to distinguish …

Background Large-diameter trees have an outsized influence on aboveground forest
dynamics, composition, and structure. Although their influence on aboveground processes is …

Introduction Trees interact with fungi in mutualistic, saprotrophic, and pathogenic
relationships. With their extensive aboveground and belowground structures, trees provide …

Abstract The Nullarbor Plain constitutes one of the main biogeographic barriers of Australia,
and it has been suggested to have played a key role in the disjunct distribution of numerous …

Purpose Understanding the impact of neighbor tree diversity on soil biodiversity at the
individual tree scale and clarifying which facets of neighbor tree diversity have a decisive …

The contribution of deterministic versus stochastic processes to the spatio-temporal
assembly of soil microbial communities in tropical forests requires quantification so that …

Inland river basins include critical habitats and provide various ecosystem services in
extremely arid lands. However, we know little about the distribution patterns of soil fungal …

Ecological processes that control fungal distribution are not well understood because many
fungi can persist in a wide variety of dissimilar habitats which are seldom sampled …
