Article Synopsis
- The interaction between poisonous weeds and neighboring plants is affected by competition, with poisonous weeds often gaining the upper hand.
- Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and plant pathogenic fungi (PPF) play a key role in these plant relationships, although their specific effects are not fully understood.
- A pot experiment revealed that while poisonous weeds inhibited the aboveground growth of neighboring grasses, they enhanced the underground growth of their own roots, with changes in soil properties like pH and nitrogen levels influencing these interactions.
Introduction: Saline-alkali degradation in grassland significantly affects plant community composition and soil physical and chemical properties. However, it remains unclear whether different degradation gradients affect soil microbial community and the main soil driving factors. Therefore, it is important to elucidate the effects of saline-alkali degradation on soil microbial community and the soil factors affecting soil microbial community in order to develop effective solutions to restore the degraded grassland ecosystem.

Most of the photovoltaic power generation plants are concentrated in desert, grassland and arable land, which means the change of land use type. However, there is still a gap in the research of the PV panel layout on grassland plant species diversity and ecological function.
