Soil nutritional status and biogeography influence rhizosphere microbial communities associated with the invasive tree Acacia dealbata

Kamutando, Casper N; Nkuekam, Gilbert, Kamgan; Surendra, Vikram; Makhalanyane, Thulani, P.; Greve, Michelle; Le Roux, Johannes, J.; Richardson, David, M.; Cowan, Don (2017-07-26)

Invasiveness and the impacts of introduced plants are known to be mediated by plant-microbe interactions. Yet, the microbial communities associated with invasive plants are generally poorly understood. Here we report ...

The functional potential of the rhizospheric microbiome of an invasive tree species, acacia dealbata.

Kamutando, Casper, Nyaradzai; Surendra, Vikram; Nkuekam, Gilbert, Kamgan; Makhalanyane, Thulani, P.; Greve, Johannes, J.; Richardson, David, M.; Cowan, David, M.; Valverde, Angel (Springer Nature, 2019-01-01)

Plant-microbe interactions mediate both the invasiveness of introduced plant species and the impacts that they have in invaded ecosystems. Although the phylogenetic composition of the rhizospheric microbiome of Acacia ...
