Dec 26, 2016 · In this study, we asked how the vegetation structure, plant diversity and soil traits differ among the habitats in each plant formation, whether soil characteristics affect vegetation structure and plant diversity and whether the effect of soil varied across different formations.

Jan 1, 2024 · In general, vegetation roots can modify the soil structure and soil hydraulic properties through root exudation, root penetration, root water uptake, and root decay, according to current research (see Fig. 1 c, d) (Lu et al., 2020; Shi et al., 2021; Ng et al., 2022).
May 20, 2024 · We assess the multifaceted role of vegetation in soil stabilization, examining processes such as canopy interception, stemflow, and the effects of hydrological and mechanical changes induced by root systems and above-ground plant structures.
Sep 20, 2020 · The hydraulic pathway (water flow from roots to atmosphere) and plant response at varying soil stress (suction) is explained. Thereafter, the effects of inherent plant properties (bio-polymer composition, plant physiological parameters and root morphology) on soil reinforcement are discussed.

Apr 13, 2024 · Agronomic measures use vegetation to protect soil against erosion and build organic content. Soil management techniques include preparing the soil to promote plant growth and improving its structure, making the soil more resilient to erosion.
Aug 3, 2022 · In this review, we detail how the geophysical environment affects soil formation and evaluate the mechanisms through which edaphic conditions control vegetation structure, floristic diversity and functional diversity.

Nov 24, 2021 · Plant–microbial interactions are considered negative when their effects lead to plant performances reduction; while the relationship is positive when it enhances plant survival, nutritional status and yield. The balanced interaction between microorganisms and plants is closely associated to soil health.
