This study examines the trade-off between arbuscular mycorrhiza and root hair traits across multiple scales in grassland plants, finding consistent patterns at community and interspecific levels but not at intraspecific or intra-individual levels.

The paper integrates belowground plant traits to show persistence strategies are a critical dimension of plant function beyond resource acquisition and exploration.

This study compares absorptive and transport fine root traits in 25 European tree species and finds that absorptive root traits better explain tree growth than transport root traits.

The paper shows that plant species richness and root economics space axes influence soil fungal community composition in a grassland experiment.

The study shows that soil history has a greater impact than plant history on arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal community assembly in a grassland diversity experiment.
