Abstract Purpose of Review Continuous replanting of land with the same or similar plant
species can result in the accumulation of harmful soil microbes, which can lead to crop …

Forest secondary succession alters plant diversity and soil properties in the forest
ecosystems; however, effects of this process on the soil fungal community structure are …

Trees associating with different mycorrhizas often differ in their effects on litter
decomposition, nutrient cycling, soil organic matter (SOM) dynamics, and plant-soil …

Oak forests accompanied by Cistus species are a common landscape in the Mediterranean
basin. It is argued that Cistus dominated fields serve as recruitment areas for Quercus …

Cistus scrublands are pyrophytic ecosystems and occur widely across Mediterranean
regions. Management of these scrublands is critical to prevent major disturbances, such as …

Soil fungi participate in a variety of forest ecological processes and drive the succession of
degraded forests. However, how the soil fungal community and functional taxa change with …

Successional planting of Eucalyptus is known to significantly affect soil quality. However, the
accompanying changes in the bacterial and fungal community structure, co-occurrence …

Abstract Most of the Dry Afromontane forests in the northern part of Ethiopia are located
around church territories and, hence, are called church forests. These forests are …

Climate change has strongly increased the fire frequency in Mediterranean forests causing
changes in soil bacterial, fungal and microarthropod communities. Fire impacts on soil …

Cistus ladanifer-dominated ecosystems are widely distributed in the Western Mediterranean
basin and are affected by recurrent fires. Although these scrublands were traditionally …
