Plant-soil feedback (PSF) effects are studied as plant growth responses to soil previously conditioned by another plant. These studies usually exclude effects of soil fauna, such as nematodes, soil arthropods, and earthworms, although these organisms are known to in...
We performed a PSF experiment in microcosms with two plant species,and. We added a model microarthropod community consisting of three fungivorous springtail species (,, and) and a predatory mite () to half of the microcosms. We measured seedling establishment and plant biomass, nematode and ...
Plant–soil feedback (PSF) is widely recognised as a driver of plant community composition, but understanding of its response to drought remains in its infancy. Here, we provide a conceptual framework for the role of drought in PSF, considering plant traits, drought severity, and historical prec...

In chapter 3 I test how plant traits relate to PSF using a 49 grassland plant species of the Jena Experiment. First, I grew individuals of all species for two months in sterilized soil inoculated with field soil. In the subsequent feedback phase, I grew all plant species for 6 weeks in...

The objective of this study was to determine if vineyard groundcover management can mitigate negative plant-soil feedback caused by soil borne pathogens th
Lastly, we tested hypothesis (iv) on the role of microbiome, microbial groups, and individual microbes in regulation of conspecific feedback, i.e., plants growing on soil legacies created by their own species. On average, all plant species used in this experiment performed worse in soils with...
Such belowground changes then feedback on plants. Although of both substrate-plant and microfloraCplant interactions have been studied, the joint interactions of all three remain underexplored. We studied the effects of the microbial community and substrate on plants in a full-factorial experiment. ...
