Soil biodiversity, biological indicators and soil ecosystem services—an overview of European approaches (2012, background): “However, relations between soil biodiversity and ecosystem functions tend to depend more on structural and functional diversity than on taxonomic parameters per se [10,11].”
Species richness effects on ecosystem multifunctionality depend on evenness, composition and spatial pattern (2012, background): “Journal of Ecology 2011 British Ecological Society, Journal of Ecology, 100, 317–330 related to C and N cycling (e.g. De Deyn et al. 2009), and even when it is, the effects are often linked to the presence of specific plant functional groups (e.g. Fornara & Tilman 2008).”
Influence of plant species and soil conditions on plant–soil feedback in mixed grassland communities (2010, background): “…species on soil microbial communities can vary with soil fertility (Bardgett et al. 1999; Innes, Hobbs & Bardgett 2004), and it is well-established that the nature of interactions between plants and soil microorganisms depend on soil conditions (Marschner, Crowley & Yang 2004; De Deyn et al. 2009).”
Relative contributions of plant traits and soil microbial properties to mountain grassland ecosystem services (2013, background): “In turn, this can have consequences for ecosystem services, such as carbon storage and retention of nutrients in soil (e.g. Spehn et al. 2005; Fornara & Tilman 2008; Steinbeiss et al. 2008; De Deyn et al. 2009).”
Plant functional diversity and carbon storage – an empirical test in semi‐arid forest ecosystems (2013, methodology): “…of the effect of functional plant composition on ecosystem processes has been derived from experiments on highly simplified systems (Tilman et al. 1997; Thompson et al. 2005; Fornara & Tilman 2008; Steinbeiss et al. 2008; De Deyn et al. 2009; Pakeman, Eastwood & Scobie 2011; Roscher et al. 2012).”
