Relationship between root system-soil C:N:P and soil microbial diversity at different evolutionary stages of Caragana tibetica scrub in arid desert grassland, Northern China

Scrub root systems play a crucial role in preventing soil erosion and nutrient loss. However, the effects of the root system configuration on soil nutrient dynamics and microbial changes at various evolutionary stages remain poorly understood. In this study, we investigated the relationship between...
