Plant–soil interactions play an important role in the structure and function of plant communities and in the functioning of ecosystems
Soil factor effects on plant community structure are addressed by highlighting plant trait selection by degraded habitats in ultramafic soils for mine reclamation [3], by specifying the effect of microorganism supply (AMF, Frankia and Rhizophagus fasciculatus) on plant community structures and ecological restoration [4], and by reviewing the role of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF) to cope with biotic and abiotic stresses and improve plant growth [5]
The role of ecological complementarity and species diversity of plant communities in soil properties and ecosystem services is addressed in this Special Issue
Summary
Plant–soil interactions play an important role in the structure and function of plant communities and in the functioning of ecosystems. Soil properties represent a strong selection pressure for plant diversity and influence the structure of plant communities and participate in the generation and maintenance of biodiversity. Plant communities grow by modifying the physical, chemical, and biological properties of soil, with consequent effects on survival and growth of plants.
