Deciphering factors driving soil microbial life‐history strategies in restored grasslands
In macroecology, the concept of r‐and K‐strategy has been widely applied, yet, there have
been limited studies on microbial life‐history strategies in temperate grasslands using …

Afforestation can lower microbial diversity and functionality in deep soil layers in a semiarid region
Afforestation is an effective approach to rehabilitate degraded ecosystems, but often
depletes deep soil moisture. Presently, it is not known how an afforestation‐induced …

Linking bacterial life strategies with soil organic matter accrual by karst vegetation restoration
Vegetation restoration affects belowground microbial diversity and trait-based life strategies,
as well as soil organic matter (SOM) accumulation. Despite the growing focus on microbial …

Loss of microbial diversity weakens specific soil functions, but increases soil ecosystem stability
The importance of microbial community diversity for soil functioning is still debated. Here, we
used a dilution approach (undiluted, and 10− 4, 10− 8 and 10− 12) and supplementation of …
