Effect of Saline-Alkali and Drought Stress on Seed Germination of Haloxylon Ammodendron*

Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2020
Abstract Based on the problems of desertification and salinization in the Qaidam Basin, this paper studies the coupled stress of saline-alkali and drought conditions on the seed germination of Haloxylon ammodendron from Qaidam provenance, and clarifies the comprehensive effect of salt, alkali and drought stress on Haloxylon ammodendron ...

Who's the boss? Understanding the spatial relationship between snow leopard and Eurasian lynx in southern Mongolia

Wildlife Biology, Volume 2025, Issue 4, July 2025.
Interspecific competition, a fundamental ecological process characterized by negative interactions between species, plays a vital role in shaping ecological communities. Despite the co‐occurrence of the snow leopard Panthera uncia and the Eurasian lynx Lynx lynx across vast landscapes in Asia, their interactions remain poorly understood. In this study,

Heavy‐Textured Rhizosphere Soils Enhance Microbial Nitrogen Fixation in a Desert Shrub Ecosystem

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 4, April 2025.
N2 fixation occurred in a heavy‐textured soil profile (0–60 cm), especially in rhizospheres, and the sandy soil had slight N2 fixation only in the bulk topsoil (0–20 cm). Available N, nitrate‐N, SOC, clay content, microbial activity, nifH gene abundance, and the relative abundance of certain microbial taxa were the main drivers of N2 fixation in soils.
