Relationships between soil microorganisms, plant communities and soil characteristics in Chinese subtropical forests. - Ecosystems Ecosystems
Soil microbial community and activity is generally thought to be mainly determined by soil variables. This paper also looks at the influence of vegetation layer characteristics (herbs and trees, cover, mass, diversity) on soil microbes.
