Journal ArticleDOI
Ecological linkages between aboveground and belowground biota.
David A. Wardle,David A. Wardle,Richard D. Bardgett,John N. Klironomos,Heikki Setälä,Wim H. van der Putten,Diana H. Wall +6 more
TL;DR: This work shows how aboveground and belowground components are closely interlinked at the community level, reinforced by a greater degree of specificity between plants and soil organisms than has been previously supposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
The unseen majority: Soil microbes as drivers of plant diversity and productivity in terrestrial ecosystems
TL;DR: Overall, this review shows that soil microbes must be considered as important drivers of plant diversity and productivity in terrestrial ecosystems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Belowground biodiversity and ecosystem functioning
TL;DR: Recent progress in understanding belowground biodiversity and its role in determining the ecological and evolutionary responses of terrestrial ecosystems to current and future environmental change are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
A global atlas of the dominant bacteria found in soil

TL;DR: This study narrows down the immense number of bacterial taxa to a “most wanted” list that will be fruitful targets for genomic and cultivation-based efforts aimed at improving the understanding of soil microbes and their contributions to ecosystem functioning.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plant functional traits and soil carbon sequestration in contrasting biomes
TL;DR: It is proposed that a trait-based approach will help to develop strategies to preserve and promote carbon sequestration under global changes, and how the composition of key plant traits and soil biota related to carbon input, release and storage prevail in different biomes across the globe.
