It focuses on the process level, which is relevant to many types of multi-species agro-ecosystems. It also links basic research to practical applications in a wide range of systems with or without trees, and considers effects of global change on below-ground interactions.Plant-soil relationshipsTropicsAgricultural ecologyTropicsPlant-soil relationshipsAgricultural ecology631.4Noordwijk Meine van1599344Cadisch G(Georg)1599345Ong C.
