Fungal community compositions across the growing season of Lux Arbor: NMDS plots of the (a) root and (b) soil communities of switchgrass monocultures. Symbols represent the mean composition in nitrogen (N) addition (filled circles) and control (open triangles) subplots with error bars representing SE. Fill color ramp represents collection dates with lighter colors representing earlier dates and darker colors representing later dates. Gray ellipses represent plot level composition at 95% confidence. Euler diagrams of (c) root fungal and (d) soil fungal communities represent the partitioning of the deviance from generalized dissimilarity models (GDMs) into spatial (pairwise distance between samples), soil (soil pH, P, K, and Ca), and meteorological (MET: soil core gravimetric soil moisture and 24-hour average of soil temperature). Loess graphs from GDMs of (e) temporal and (f) spatial patterns in community change of root fungi (green lines) and soil fungi (brown lines). Dashed lines represent 95% confidence. Vertical lines along the x-axes represent collection dates and pairwise spatial distances
