Biological invasions can have various impacts on the diversity of important microbial mutualists such as mycorrhizal fungi, but few studies have tested whether the effects of invasions on mycorrhizal diversity are consistent across spatial gradients. Furthermore, few of these studies have taken place in tropical ecosystems that experience an inordinate rate of invasions into native habitats. Here, we examined the effects of plant invasions dominated by non-native tree species on the diversity of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi in Hawaii. To test the hypothesis that invasions result in consistent changes in AM fungal diversity across spatial gradients relative to native forest habitats, we sampled soil in paired native and invaded sites from three watersheds and used amplicon sequencing to characterize AM fungal communities. Whether our analyses considered phylogenetic relatedness or not, we found that invasions consistently increased the richness of AM fungi. However, AM fungal species composition was not related to invasion status of the vegetation nor local environment, but stratified by watershed. Our results suggest that while invasions can lead to an overall increase in the diversity of microbial mutualists, the effects of plant host identity or geographic structuring potentially outweigh those of invasive species in determining the community membership of AM fungi. Thus, host specificity and spatial factors such as dispersal need to be taken into consideration when examining the effects of biological invasions on symbiotic microbes.

生物入侵增加了夏威夷亚热带生态系统中丛枝菌根真菌的丰富度。

生物入侵可能会对重要的微生物共生者(如菌根真菌)的多样性产生各种影响,但很少有研究测试入侵对菌根多样性的影响是否在空间梯度上一致。此外,这些研究很少在热带生态系统中进行,这些生态系统经历了对本地生境的过度入侵。在这里,我们检查了非本地树种占主导的植物入侵对夏威夷丛枝菌根(AM)真菌多样性的影响。为了检验假说,入侵会导致AM真菌多样性相对于原始森林栖息地在整个空间梯度上持续变化,我们在三个流域的成对的原生和入侵站点采样土壤,并使用扩增子测序来表征AM真菌群落。无论我们的分析是否考虑了系统发育相关性,我们都发现入侵不断增加了AM真菌的丰富性。但是,AM真菌的种类组成与植被的入侵状况,局部环境无关,而是以分水岭分层。我们的结果表明,虽然入侵可以导致微生物共生者多样性的整体增加,但在确定AM真菌的群落成员时,植物寄主身份或地理结构的影响可能超过入侵物种的影响。因此,在检查生物入侵对共生微生物的影响时,需要考虑宿主的特异性和空间因素,例如扩散。AM真菌的种类组成与植被的入侵状况或当地环境无关,而是由分水岭分层。我们的结果表明,虽然入侵可以导致微生物共生者多样性的整体增加,但在确定AM真菌的群落成员时,植物寄主身份或地理结构的影响可能超过入侵物种的影响。因此,在检查生物入侵对共生微生物的影响时,需要考虑宿主的特异性和空间因素,例如扩散。AM真菌的种类组成与植被的入侵状况或当地环境无关,而是由分水岭分层。我们的结果表明,虽然入侵可以导致微生物共生者多样性的整体增加,但在确定AM真菌的群落成员时,植物寄主身份或地理结构的影响可能超过入侵物种的影响。因此,在检查生物入侵对共生微生物的影响时,需要考虑宿主的特异性和空间因素,例如扩散。在确定AM真菌的群落成员时,植物寄主身份或地理结构的影响可能超过入侵物种的影响。因此,在检查生物入侵对共生微生物的影响时,需要考虑宿主的特异性和空间因素,例如扩散。在确定AM真菌的群落成员时,植物寄主身份或地理结构的影响可能超过入侵物种的影响。因此,在检查生物入侵对共生微生物的影响时,需要考虑宿主的特异性和空间因素,例如扩散。
