Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) species and abundance exhibit different effects on saline-alkaline tolerance in Leymus chinensis

open access: yesJournal of Plant Interactions, 2020
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) was considered as a biotechnological tool for plant stress tolerance improvement and degraded ecosystem restoration. However, the variations in the effects of AMF species and abundance on plant performance under stress ...

Vegetation Re-development After Fen Meadow Restoration by Topsoil Removal and Hay Transfer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We investigated the effects of different restoration treatments on the development of fen meadow communities: (1) depth of topsoil removal, with shallow (circa 20 cm) and deep (circa 40 cm) soil removal applied, (2) transfer of seed-containing hay, and ...

Changes in soil dissolved organic matter optical properties during peatland succession

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2022
Dissolved organic matter (DOM) is the most active component in the soil environment. Understanding the chemical diversity of DOM and the interaction of the physicochemical properties of the soil are key to managing peatland under succession.

Changes in vegetation types affect soil microbial communities in tropical islands of southern China

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation, 2022
Soil microbial communities are the key drivers of nutrient cycling in ecosystems. However, the functional response of soil microbial community composition to contrasting vegetation types in tropical coral islands is still unclear.
