Evidence of dispersal limitation in soil microorganisms: isolation reduces species richness on mycorrhizal tree islands

KG Peay, M Garbelotto, TD Bruns - Ecology, 2010 - Wiley Online Library
Dispersal limitation plays an important role in a number of equilibrium and nonequilibrium
theories about community ecology. In this study we use the framework of island …

Lack of belowground mutualisms hinders Pinaceae invasions

MA Nuñez, TR Horton, D Simberloff - Ecology, 2009 - Wiley Online Library
Why particular invasions succeed and others fail is not well understood. The role of soil biota
has been proposed as important. However, the role of mutualists has received much less …

Spore dispersal of basidiomycete fungi at the landscape scale is driven by stochastic and deterministic processes and generates variability in plant–fungal interactions

KG Peay, TD Bruns - New Phytologist, 2014 - Wiley Online Library
Fungi play an important role in plant communities and ecosystem function. As a result,
variation in fungal community composition can have important consequences for plant …

The mutualistic niche: mycorrhizal symbiosis and community dynamics

KG Peay - Annual Review of Ecology, Evolution, and …, 2016 - annualreviews.org
