Plant secondary metabolites: a key driver of litter decomposition and soil nutrient cycling (2016, background): “At the genetic level, Schweitzer et al. (2004) found marked differences among cottonwood hybrids (Populus fremontii L. 9 P. angustifolia James) in terms of foliar levels of condensed tannins, which ranged from 1% to 10% of leaf dry matter.”
Plant–soil feedbacks: connecting ecosystem ecology and evolution (2016, background): “…on soil and root microbiota has been observed under highly controlled greenhouse, common garden and agricultural settings (Marschner et al. 2001; Schweitzer et al. 2008a; Lundberg et al. 2012), and recently in wild plant species growing in close proximity in the field (Aleklett et al. 2015).”
Application of genetic diversity–ecosystem function research to ecological restoration (2014, background): “2006; Kotowska, Cahill Jr & Keddie 2010), decomposition (Schweitzer et al. 2004; Madritch, Donaldson & Lindroth 2006), invasion resistance (Crutsinger, Souza & Sanders 2008; Vellend, Drummond & Tomimatsu 2010) and the ability of ecosystems to recover from a disturbance such as episodic herbivory or ”
Host plant genetics affect hidden ecological players: links among Populus, condensed tannins, and fungal endophyte infection (2005, positive): “…angustifolia James) results in a very predictable change in the concentration of condensed tannins (Schweitzer et al. 2004; Bailey et al. 2004), which are known to inhibit many fungi (Gallardo and Merino 1992; Grime et al. 1996; Heal et al. 1997; Driebe and Whitham 2000; Schweitzer et al. 2004).”
Deadly combination of genes and drought: increased mortality of herbivore‐resistant trees in a foundation species (2009, background): “Recent studies demonstrate that genetically-based plant traits can affect dependent communities (Wimp et al., 2004; Johnson & Agrawal, 2005; Crutsinger et al., 2006), and ecosystem processes (Treseder & Vitousek, 2001; Schweitzer et al., 2004, 2005; Crutsinger et al., 2006; Leroy et al., 2007).”
The interaction of plant genotype and herbivory decelerate leaf litter decomposition and alter nutrient dynamics (2005, background): “…to be recognized (Driebe and Whitham 2000, Treseder and Vitousek 2001, Lindroth et al. 2002, Madritch and Hunter 2002, 2004, Fischer et al. 2004, Schweitzer et al. 2004), here we addressed how interactions between plant genotype and herbivory can modify the impacts of plant genetic variation on…”

Interactions among plants and evolution (2011, background): “The majority of studies of extended phenotypes have focused on the effects of genetic variation within a species on soil characteristics (Schweitzer et al. 2004) and ⁄or the trophic”
Soil inoculation method determines the strength of plant–soil interactions (2012, background): “, 2010) and thatplant genotypes can differ in their effects on belowground processes, such as decomposition (Schweitzer et al., 2004).”
Unexpectedly High Clonal Diversity of Two Salt Marsh Perennials Across a Severe Environmental Gradient (2004, neutral): “Studies have demonstrated that natural selection in different microhabitats can result in associations of genotypes or alleles with habitat type (Hamrick & Allard 1972; Silander 1984; Salzman 1985; Heywood 1991; Schmidt & Rand 1999 ).”
