The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Root traits and soil properties in harvested perennial grassland, annual wheat, and never-tilled annual wheat (2014, background): “Most studies that relate root characteristics to soil properties are container studies (Swemmer et al. 2006) or immature monocultures (Craine et al. 2002, 2003; Fornara et al. 2009).”
Effects of plant species richness and evenness on soil microbial community diversity and function (2010, background): “The influences of plant community species richness and composition on soil microbial community structure and soil processes such as litter decomposition are well documented (e.g. Bardgett 2005; Berg and Smalla 2009; Chung et al. 2007; Eisenhauer et al. 2010; Fornara et al. 2009; Milcu et al. 2006).”
