Data for: Positive and negative feedbacks drive aboveground traits in rare plant species

Dataset was initially utilized in Wooliver et al. 2018 (https://doi.org/10.1111/1365-2745.12983); data from this paperwere recategorized through the addition of rarity levels and reanalyzed to address untested hypotheses and provide new results unrelated to Wooliver et al. 2018. The csv file titled "raw_data" provides information about the biomass, percent ectomycorrhizal (ECM), and percent DSE colonization among 14 species of Tasmanian Eucalyptus varying in rarity levels. Within the data, a rarity level 8 is representative of common species. The other two data files represent the calculated effect sizes of biomass and ECM colonziation in phylogenetically similar (con_to_same) and distant mixtures (con_to_opp)compared to conspecific soil conditions. Within the "con_to_same" and "con_to_opp" files, hedge_g_biomass represents the effect size of biomass and hedge_g_ecm represents the effect size of ecm. These datasets are used to test the hypotheses: 1) Total plant biomass, ECM colonization, and DSE colonization vary based on the rarity of plant host; 2) Plant species inoculated by conditioned soil varying in phylogenetic relatedness (conspecific, similar, distant) demonstrate differences in total plant biomass, ECM colonization, and DSE colonization. To understand potential mechanistic drivers of hypotheses 1 and 2, we also hypothesized that: 3) The difference between the total plant biomass of species in conspecific soil versus same lineage or opposite lineage soil is related to differing rates of ECM and DSE colonization.
