Microbial communities in plant roots provide critical links between above‐and belowground
processes in terrestrial ecosystems. Variation in root communities has been attributed to …

Despite a century of study by ecologists, recovery following disturbances (succession) is not
fully understood. This book provides the first global synthesis that compares plant …

Quaternary volcanic activities exert effects on microbial community compositions and
structures, but the influences on typical steppes remain poorly understood. The aim of this …

Background and aims Rates of tailings production and deposition around the world have
increased markedly in recent decades, and have grown asynchronously with safe and …

Primary succession is an ecological process of fundamental importance referring to the
development of vegetation on areas not previously occupied by a plant community. The bulk …

Ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi are a key organism group enabling and enhancing the process
of open land colonization by ECM-dependent trees and shrubs. Through their functional …

Evidence is accumulating that belowground soil organisms are strong drivers of the
aboveground plant community. In this chapter, we examine how soil communities influence …

We measured differences in% C,% N, δ 13C, and δ 15N of plant functional types (PFTs)
between burned and unburned ground surfaces soon after a wildfire on a north-facing slope …

We investigated the colonization status of mycorrhizal and endophytic fungi in roots of plants
established on an acidic barren at volcano Esan, Hokkaido, Japan. In total, 87 individuals of …
