Linking above- and belowground resource use strategies for native and invasive species of temperate deciduous forests (2015, background): “…mineralized N has strengthened significantly as a result of increasing dominance of non-native shrubs and lianas, potentially changing ecosystem C and nutrient fluxes and shifting the composition of microbial communities (Kourtev et al. 2002; Ashton et al. 2005; Liao et al. 2008; Lee et al. 2012).”
COMPETITION BETWEEN NATIVE PERENNIAL AND EXOTIC ANNUAL GRASSES: IMPLICATIONS FOR AN HISTORICAL INVASION (2004, neutral): “It is also possible that changes in mycorrhizal community composition as the plant community has shifted from native- to exotic-dominated has altered vegetation–microbial associations (Kourtev et al. 2002).”
Microbial responses to a changing environment: implications for the future functioning of terrestrial ecosystems (2011, background): “…these divergent responses, one consistent observation has emerged: the presence of particular plant species and their abundance in plant communities can shape both the composition and function of microbial communities in soil (Kourtev et al. 2002; Edwards & Zak 2010; Eisenhauer et al. 2010).”
NEIGHBORHOOD MODELS OF THE EFFECTS OF INVASIVE TREE SPECIES ON ECOSYSTEM PROCESSES (2008, background): “…the potential to modify many soil properties, including soil pH and cation availability (Belnap and Phillips 2001, Ehrenfeld et al. 2001), N and C dynamics (Evans et al. 2001, Hughes and Denslow 2005), and microbial community structure and function (Kourtev et al. 2002, Wolfe and Klironomos 2005).”

Soil modification by invasive plants: effects on native and invasive species of mixed-grass prairies (2008, background): “…modification of various components of the biotic composition of invaded soil, e.g., affecting a soil food web (Duda et al. 2003), total soil microbial communities (Kourtev et al. 2002a, b; Kourtev et al. 2003), and mutualistic fungi (Allen et al. 2003; Hawkes et al 2006; Mummey and Rillig 2006).”
Long-term response of spring flora to chronic herbivory and deer exclusion in Great Smoky Mountains National Park, USA (2005, background): “, an aggressive exotic C4 grass that may be capable of altering soil microbial communities as it invades (Kourtev et al., 2002).”
Support for major hypotheses in invasion biology is uneven and declining (2012, background): “…can alter the existing native fungal communities in a densely invaded environment, thus disrupting native plant communities (Helgason et al. 2002, Kourtev et al. 2002, Mummey et al.2005, Batten et al. 2006, Greipsson and DiTommaso 2006, Hawkes et al. 2006, Stinson et al. 2006, Meinhardt and…”
Plant–soil feedbacks: connecting ecosystem ecology and evolution (2016, background): “Such feedbacks have been shown to facilitate or slow the spread of invasive species (Kourtev et al. 2002; Wolfe & Klironomos 2005; Levine et al. 2006; Reinhart & Callaway 2006; Nijjer, Rogers & Siemann 2007; Batten, Scow & Espeland 2008), direct plant community succession (Kardol, Bezemer & van der…”
Gone but Not Forgotten? Invasive Plants' Legacies on Community and Ecosystem Properties (2012, background): “Invasive plants have been shown to alter soil microbial and fungal communities in ways that can influence plant– plant interactions, plant community composition, and plant–soil interactions (Kourtev et al. 2002; Pringle et al. 2009; Reinhart and Callaway 2006; Stinson et al. 2006).”
Plant nitrogen uptake drives rhizosphere bacterial community assembly during plant growth (2015, background): “…throughout plant developmental stages (Houlden et al., 2008; Micallef et al., 2009; Ziegler et al., 2013) suggests that plants do have an important role in structuring soil bacterial communities throughout the growing season (Kourtev et al., 2002; Marschner et al., 2004; Fierer et al., 2013).”
Invasive species: “back-seat drivers” of ecosystem change? (2012, positive): “Additionally, studies of Microstegium-invaded areas have found alterations of soil nutrient cycling and soil microbial communities (Ehrenfeld 2003; Ehrenfeld et al. 2001; Kourtev et al. 2002).”
Responses of extracellular enzyme activities and microbial community in both the rhizosphere and bulk soil to long-term fertilization practices in a fluvo-aquic soil (2012, background): “In this study, rhizosphere soil was defined as the vegetated soil within the densely rooted portion of the soil profile, and bulk soil as the unvegetated soil immediately surrounding the root mat (Kourtev et al., 2002).”
