Plant functional group diversity promotes soil protist diversity.

Protist - 1 Jul 2003

Ledeganck Pieter, Nijs Ivan, Beyens Louis

Abstract excerpt

We tested whether effects of plant diversity can propagate through food webs, down to heterotrophic protists not linked directly to plants. To this end we synthesised grassland ecosystems with varying numbers of plant functional groups (FGN) and assessed corresponding changes in testate amoebae c...
