Below ground ecology or below ground ecological functions and ecosystems roles are very crucial and highly significant for any ecosystem especially for the forest ecosystems. The interaction among soil, microbes(fungi, algae, bacteria etc.) and plant roots create the most suitable environment to survive where growth and productivity is more likely to be associated to above-ground factors
Microbial activities, mycorrhizal association, soil amelioration due to saprophytic organisms are an integral part of forest ecology .
It is not unexplored. But because of difficulties in exploration methods research work and results are not so extensive. By the way: Which country do you mean "our country"?
Though the more the depth of soil increases the less the occurrence of microbial activities. But much work is done on sub soil surfaces were large number of inter and intra associations occurs.
