Vertical distribution of soil biota is not well understood. Here we studied the development vertical chemical and biological properties in two post-mining chronosequnces heaps after open cast coal mining, one left to succession (sites 20, 35 60 years old) reclaimed by levelling Alder (Alnus glutinosa Alnus incana) afforestation 10, 25, 40, near Sokolov, Czechia. When spoil material compacted during afforestation, as sites, effect time was less important than spontaneous where no compaction...
Abstract Previous research showed that during intermediate stages of primary succession, when vegetation is dominated by ectomycorrhizal (EcM) shrubs and trees, site colonization earthworms substantially alters plant communities. Research has also shown EcM trees suppress arbuscular mycorrhizal ( AM ) plants in the understory. To determine whether earthworm activity reduces this asymmetric competition, we conducted a full factorial laboratory experiment which grew Betula pendula...
