Abstract There is a direct link between the increasing human population and soil degradation that raises current future food security concerns. Soil amelioration using beneficial microorganisms, particularly arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), essential pragmatic. AMF produces glomalin also contributes to mitigation of degradation. However, studies on ecological role are scattered patchy, no evident overview exists. We fill this knowledge gap by systematic comprehensive literature review...
Abstract Effects of vegetation traits and soil physical properties on runoff sediment yield were investigated under different land uses in Xishuangbanna, Southwest China. The cutting‐ring method was applied, field plot experiments conducted to determine monitor response land‐use change by comparing tropical rainforest (TR), rubber monoculture (Rm), four rubber‐based agroforestry systems. Results showed that conversion forest resulted lower leaf area index (LAI), canopy cover, less litter, an...
As a relatively successful agroforestry system, whether the addition of more intercropped species in rubber–tea system extends benefits is still unknown but worth exploring because diverse cash crop production helps farmers resist market risks and may bring ecological functions rubber systems closer to those natural forests. Therefore, understanding effects plant interspecific competition on both plants soil with increase number such vital for improvement systems. For these reasons, we...
Rock outcrop is an important habitat supporting plant communities in karst landscape. However, information on the restoration of higher biotic populations outcrops limited. Here, we investigated diversity, biomass changes vascular plants (VP) and humus soil (HS) during a process. We surveyed VP rock measured HS reserved by various microhabitats desertification ecosystem (RDE), anthropogenic forest (AFE), secondary (SFE) Shilin County, southwest China. metrics (e.g. quantity nutrients...
Natural tropical landscapes have been continuously altered by land use change and other climate factors. Forest management practices transformed massive forests into rubber plantations throughout mainland Southeast Asia Southwest China. However, the effect of forest-to-plantation conversion on ecosystem functions associated with plant litter is limited. Here, we compare litterfall production, decomposition, nutrient return efficiency between a natural forest (TNF) monoculture plantation...
Forestry eco-hydrology is closely related to root architecture, and soil water infiltration has been always associated with architecture. In this study, dye experiments HYDRUS-1D were used quantify the effects of different architectures on dynamics infiltration, volumetric content, pressure head. The results provide evidence that channels acted as preferential flow paths for percolation into soil. Maize fibrous roots, rubber trees fine Spartina alterniflora smooth roots easily penetrated...
Soil erosion by water is known to be a major driver of land degradation. Splash the initial stage and directly contributes detachment soil particles on sloping land. may exacerbated or mitigated ongoing use/cover change. To estimate effects various use management systems splash in humid tropics, we measured actual under natural rainfall conditions tropical rainforest (TR), rubber monoculture (RM), four agroforestry ecosystems Xishuangbanna, Southwestern China. The average cumulative mass RM...
