Fertile soil is fundamental to our ability to achieve food security, but problems with soil
degradation (such as acidification) are exacerbated by poor management. Consequently …

Abstract The Transylvanian Plateau in Romania is well known to host large areas of a
variety of dry grassland types, still traditionally managed by low-intensity mowing or grazing …

While the effect of disturbance on overall abundance and community composition of
arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi has been researched in agricultural fields, less is known …

The primary mechanisms contributing to nitrogen (N) addition induced grassland
biodiversity loss, namely light competition and soil cation toxicity, are often examined …

Patterns of biodiversity may vary across spatial scales and between taxonomic groups;
therefore, specific studies are needed to provide insights into factors driving community …

The functioning of human‐managed grassland ecosystems strongly depends on how
common management practices (eg, animal grazing and the chronic addition of fertilizing …

This study estimates the potential losses of vascular plant species richness due to terrestrial
acidification for different world's biomes. We used empirical occurrence data of 2409 species …

The drivers of plant richness at fine spatial scales in steppe ecosystems are still not
sufficiently understood. Our main research questions were:(i) How rich in plant species are …

Mediterranean wooded grasslands are multipurpose systems that support high plant and
animal diversity levels and are habitats of European importance (ie, 6310–Dehesas with …

We asked:(i) Which environmental factors determine the level of α-diversity at several scales
and β-diversity in steppic grasslands?(ii) How do the effects of environmental factors on α …
