Colonization-competition tradeoffs as a mechanism driving successional dynamics in ectomycorrhizal fungal communities.
Colonization-competition tradeoffs have been shown to be important determinants of succession in plant and animal communities, but their role in ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungal communities is not well understood. To experimentally examine whether strong spore-based competitors remain dominant on plant...
