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

Land-use history has a stronger impact on soil microbial community composition than aboveground vegetation and soil properties (2011, background): “Recently, Marshall et al. (2011) reported that soil microbial communities in Northern Canadian grasslands were relatively insensitive to changes in plant functional group composition.”
Direct and indirect effects of climate change on soil microbial and soil microbial‐plant interactions: What lies ahead? (2015, background): “…drivers using experimental (e.g., reciprocal transplants) and observational (e.g., elevational and environmental gradients) approaches should be a focus of future work (see Marshall et al. 2011, Wardle et al. 2013, and Farrer et al. 2015 for examples of experiments exploring decoupling).”
