摘要

Abstract(#br)Plant‐soil feedbacks ( PSF s) are important drivers of plant community structure and diversity, with species varying in the way they both condition soils and respond to them. While plant phylogenetic relationships alone can predict this variation in some instances, trait conservatism ac...
