Published in 2020 at "Catena"

DOI: 10.1016/j.catena.2020.104531

Abstract: Abstract Losses of soil biodiversity, stability, and fertility are primary factors causing degradation in drylands; therefore, finding a sustainable conservation practice is a critical issue for reversing desertification in these areas. By inoculation of two… read more here.
