“…Interactions between introduced plant species and the soils they colonize are increasingly being recognized for their central role in determining success and failure of plants to establish, grow, and become invasive (Hierro & Callaway, 2003; Inderjit & van der Putten, 2010; Mitchell et al., 2006; Reinhart & Callaway, 2006; Wolfe & Klironomos, 2005). Although all plants have species‐specific effects on soil they colonize (Bardgett & van der Putten, 2014; Berg & Smalla, 2009), invasive plants often appear to alter soils to their advantage, creating positive plant–soil feedback and promoting dominance (Berg & Smalla, 2009; Bever, 1994; Diez et al., 2010; Fitzsimons & Miller, 2010; Flory & Clay, 2013; Klironomos, 2002; Kowalchuk, Buma, De Boer, Klinkhamer, & van Veen, 2002; Peterman, Fergus, Turnbull, & Schmid, 2008; van der Putten et al., 2013; van Grunsven et al., 2007).…”
