Dynamics of phoD- and gcd-Harboring Microbial Communities Across an Age Sequence of Biological Soil Crusts Under Sand-Fixation Plantation

Biological soil crusts (BSCs) are important for restoring vegetation and improving soil fertility in arid or semiarid desertified land. However, studies on the contribution of BSC microbes to phosphorus (P) transformation remains limited. The microbial diversity involved in P transformation and its...
