Understanding plant-microbe relationships is important for developing reliable control strategies for invasive plants. In a field study located in California, USA, we investigated how soil microbial communities differ across the invasion front of <i>Taeniatherum caput-medusae</i> (medusahead), an annual grass that has rapidly invaded most of the western USA.<br> <br>Plots were installed in areas where medusahead invasion is successful (open grassland habitat) and not successful (oak woodland habitat). Medusahead was seeded into plots at a range of densities (from 0-50,000 seeds/m<sup>2</sup>) to simulate different levels of invasion. Bulk soil was sampled from each plot two years after medusahead seeds were sewn.
