Grazing exclosure has been extensively used among the techniques implemented by the government to protect the fertility of threatened rangelands. The impact of exclosure has been a controversial issue; therefore, it is important to understand […]
Plants may induce small-scale heterogeneity in soil nutrients, forming fertile islands. However, this process may depend on plant spices, plant developmental stages and habitat conditions. Vegetation cover in arid and semi-arid regions is mostly in the form of plant patches and bare soil of inter-patch areas, this form of vegetation cover can be useful to […]
Most of rangeland soils are limited in their ability to supply adequate nutrients to plants. Soil conditioners have been shown to alter soil fertility and plant characteristics. This investigation aimed to evaluate the influence of two soil conditioner on nutrition value of N. schoberi and A. podolobus. For this, two separate experiments for each species […]
