Positive correlation between soil bacterial metabolic and plant species diversity and bacterial and fungal diversity in a vegetation succession on Karst (2008, background): “As the main primary producers in terrestrial ecosystems, plants are thought to have profound effect on soil communities and processes, especially those in the rhizosphere (Bever 1994, 2002; Wilson and Hartnett 1997).”
Networks of power and influence: the role of mycorrhizal mycelium in controlling plant communities and agroecosystem functioning (2004, background): “The evidence of extreme specificity and fungal dependence in myco-heterotophs reinforces the need to investigate the functional importance and community consequences of host–fungus specificity that has been revealed in a number of recent studies (Vandenkoornhuyse et al. 2002; Bever 2002).”
Impact of agricultural management on arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal communities in Kenyan ferralsol (2007, background): “In addition to the above factors, the effects on AMF are likely driven by preferential associations between certain plant and AMF species (Dhillion, 1992; Hendrix et al., 1995; Bever, 2002).”
From Lilliput to Brobdingnag: Extending Models of Mycorrhizal Function across Scales (2006, background): “Plant growth varies with species of mycorrhizal fungi (ChuChou and Grace 1985, Klironomos 2003), and fungal growth depends on the identity of the plant with which the fungi are associated (Molina and Trappe 1994, Bever 2002a, 2002b).”
The evolutionary implications of exploitation in mycorrhizas (2004, background): “Specificity is complex in mycorrhizal systems, even in apparently low-specificity arbuscular mycorrhizas (Bever 2002a; Helgason et al. 2002).”
Soil community feedback and the coexistence of competitors: conceptual frameworks and empirical tests. (2003, background): “…demonstrated, including the accumulation of host-specific Pythium spp. (Mills & Bever, 1998; Westover & Bever, 2001), host-specific shifts in the composition of rhizosphere bacteria (Westover & Bever, 2001), and host-specific changes in the composition of the AM fungal community (Bever, 2002a,b).”
Phosphorus Acquisition Strategies within Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungal Community of a Single Field Site (2005, background): “The specificity of AMF association with plants is relatively low (Bever, 2002).”
Mycorrhizal feedbacks generate positive frequency dependence accelerating grassland succession (2018, background): “While negative feedback through AM fungal communities has been observed among early successional species (Bever, 2002), positive feedbacks and positive frequency dependence are a common expectation for mutualisms (Umbanhowar & McCann, 2005; Vandermeer & Boucher, 1978).”
Mycorrhizal diversity: Cause and effect? (2005, background): “In this model, positive feedback decreases diversity by increasing the abundance of certain plant species at the expense of others, while negative feedback has a homogenizing effect and promotes plant diversity (Bever et al., 1997; Bever, 2002).”
Temporal shifts from facilitation to competition occur between closely related taxa (2008, background): “2003), and/or functional trait complementarity among co-occurring fungal species at each vegetation clump as a consequence of host specificity (Bever 2002; Maherali & Klironomos 2007).”
