Resumen:
Symbiotic soil microbes can facilitate plant invasions, yet it is unclear whether the invasive capacity of plants can be explained by the invasiveness of their microbial symbionts. After compiling a global dataset on associations between non-native invasive pine trees and ectomycorrhizal fungi (EMF), we found that the interaction with invasive EMF is an important predictor of pine invasion success that acts in concert with aboveground plant traits, questioning the way we currently predict plant invasions.
