Impacts of tillage on soil properties and interactions with drainage when reseeding permanent pasture

Grassland Research, EarlyView.
Effect of three‐way interaction between soil tillage, drainage and depths on soil properties in reseeded pastures. Abstract Background Grassland reseeding typically requires intensive tillage. This disrupts soil nutrient dynamics, especially under varying drainage conditions. Methods This study evaluated the combined effects of tillage legacy, drainage

Seasonal drivers of plant–soil–microbial community structure and functions in Western Himalayan grasslands, Pakistan

Grassland Research, EarlyView.
Plant species richness was greater in summer in both alpine and subalpine grassland ecosystems. Soil moisture demonstrates significant positive correlations with soil organic carbon and total nitrogen across seasonal periods. Microbial α‐diversity peaks during summer but maintains functional stability across seasons.
