Published in 2017 at "Plant Ecology"

DOI: 10.1007/s11258-017-0757-3

Abstract: It has been shown in some cases that nitrogen (N) addition to soil will increase abundance of plant invaders because many invaders have traits that promote rapid growth in response to high resource supply. Similarly,… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Scientific Reports"

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-018-32229-0

Abstract: Drylands (hyperarid, arid, semiarid, and dry subhumid ecosystems) cover almost half of Earth’s land surface and are highly vulnerable to environmental pressures. Here we provide an inventory of soil properties including carbon (C), nitrogen (N),… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Restoration Ecology"

DOI: 10.1111/rec.14140

Abstract: Community‐type conversions, such as replacement of perennials by exotic annual grasses in semiarid desert communities, are occurring due to plant invasions that often create positive plant–soil feedbacks, which favor invaders and make restoration of native… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health"

DOI: 10.3390/ijerph20043233

Abstract: Major problems in China’s pursuit of sustainable agricultural development include inadequate, low-quality soil and water resources, imbalanced regional allocation and unreasonable utilization of resources. In some regions, overexploitation of soil resources and excessive use of… read more here.
