Effect of Cultivated Pastures on Soil Bacterial Communities in the Karst Rocky Desertification Area [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 Soil bacteria play an important role in regulating the process of vegetation restoration in karst ecosystems. However, the effects of vegetation restoration for different cultivated pastures on soil bacterial communities in the karst rocky desertification regions remain unclear.

Leaf-branch-root trait relationships in Quercus rehderiana across rocky and non-rocky desertification habitats in China [PDF]
PeerJBackground Plant leaves, branches, and roots synergistically govern survival, growth, and reproduction. However, while interspecific and community-level studies have advanced our understanding of organ coordination, intraspecific trait covariation remains poorly understood due to limited evidence.

Geologic factors leadingly drawing the macroecological pattern of rocky desertification in southwest China [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2020 AbstractRocky desertification (RD) is a special process of land deterioration in karst topography, with a view of bedrock exposure and an effect of ecological degradation. Among the three largest karst regions in the world, southwest China boasts the largest RD area and highest diversity of karst landscapes.
