Soil properties and plant diversity co-regulate ecosystem multifunctionality of subalpine primary dark coniferous forest on the eastern Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau
Plants and soils are key factors in maintaining ecosystem multifunctionality (EMF). Yet, it remains unclear how climate factors regulate the EMF through soil properties and plant diversity of different plant f...

Broomcorn millet (Panicum miliaceum L.) tolerates soil salinity by regulating salt-tolerance mechanism and resha** rhizosphere microorganisms
Increased soil salinization caused by natural or human activities is the leading cause of soil degradation. Cultivating salt-tolerant crops is an effective way to cope with soil salinity. However, the key sali...
