Microbial Community Structure and Function of Soil following Ecosystem Conversion from Native Forests to Teak Plantation Forests
Soil microbial communities can form links between forest trees and functioning of forest soils, yet the impacts of converting diverse native forests to monoculture plantations on soil microbial communities are unknown. This study tested the hypothesis that conversion from a diverse native to monocul...
