Temperature and pH define the realised niche space of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi

John Davison, +69 more
- 01 Jul 2021 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the realised niches of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) virtual taxa (VT; approximately species-level phylogroups) were modelled and found that environmental and spatial variables jointly explained VT distribution worldwide, with temperature and pH being the most important abiotic drivers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phenotypic plasticity masks range-wide genetic differentiation for vegetative but not reproductive traits in a short-lived plant

Jesús Villellas, +63 more
- 05 Aug 2021 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors disentangled genetic and plastic responses of functional traits to a set of environmental drivers and assessed how genetic differentiation and phenotypic plasticity shape observational trait-environment relationships.
Journal ArticleDOI

Are arthropod communities in grassland ecosystems affected by the abundance of an invasive plant

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors test if spotted knapweed impacts plant community, ground litter and ground temperature, and arthropod functional group structure and biomass in grassland habitats in British Columbia, Canada.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spotted knapweed (Centaurea stoebe) creates a soil legacy effect by modulating soil elemental composition in a semi-arid grassland ecosystem.

TL;DR: In this paper , the legacy effect of spotted knapweed removal on soil elemental composition and ecosystem function was examined in the Lac Du Bios Grasslands Protected Area, British Columbia, where C. stoebe invaded and control (uninvaded) plots and removed all vegetation from these plots.
Journal ArticleDOI

Semiarid bunchgrasses accumulate molybdenum on alkaline copper mine tailings: assessing phytostabilization in the greenhouse

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated two native bunchgrass species' biomass accumulation and metals uptake response to locally available soil amendments (compost, wood ash and wood chips) to determine their suitability for phytostabilization at an alkaline copper mine tailings site in British Columbia, Canada.
