Linkages between root traits, soil fungi and aggregate stability in tropical plant communities along a successional vegetation gradient

Aims Determining which abiotic and biotic factors influence soil aggregate stability (MWD) in tropical climates is often confounded by soil type. We aimed to better understand the influence of soil physical and chemical components, vegetation and fungal abundance on MWD of a Ferralsol along a successional gradient of vegetation in New Caledonia.
