Article Synopsis
- The study examines how varying thickness of herbaceous litter in desert regions affects soil properties and bacterial diversity, with a focus on the Baijitan National Nature Reserve.
- Results indicate that increased litter thickness enhances soil factors like nitrogen and potassium in the top layer but does not significantly alter the overall bacterial community structure.
- Dominant bacterial phyla included Actinobacteria and Proteobacteria, with no notable changes in bacterial diversity between soil layers, although α-diversity was lower in the 0-5 cm layer compared to the 5-10 cm layer.
