Grassland degradation fundamentally reshapes the relationship between biodiversity and ecosystem multifunctionality: shifting it from plant-dominated to increasingly soil microbes mediated, according to a new study led by Prof. YANG Yuanhe from the Institute of Botany, Chinese Academy of Sciences (IBCAS). The findings, published in Nature Plants, provide the first large-scale field evidence tha...

Permafrost thaw can stimulate the release of soil carbon, triggering a positive carbon-climate feedback that may be mediated by changes in soil phosphorus (P) availability. A research team led by Prof. YANG Yuanhe from the Institute of Botany, the Chinese Academy of Sciences (IBCAS), reports that abrupt permafrost thaw accelerates soil P cycling, with potential consequences for plant primary pr...

A new study published in PNAS shows that tree diversity consistently promotes aboveground biomass through fostering greater canopy structural complexity (CSC). Species complementarity is the main driver, with its positive effects strengthening over time.Led by Prof. LIU Xiaojuan from the Institute of Botany of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the researchers integrated 4-year, UAV-borne LiDAR a...
