Divergent Association Pathways of Soil Organic Carbon Variation Under Grazing Exclusion Across Three Grassland Sites: Relationships with Microbial Network Structure and Community Assembly
Grazing exclusion is a widely implemented restoration strategy for degraded grasslands, but its effects on soil organic carbon (SOC) remain highly variable, and the ecological pathways associated with these changes—particularly the roles of soil microorganisms—are still insufficiently understood. To investigate context...
