Soil fertility and landscape surrounding former arable fields drive the ecological resilience of Mediterranean dry grassland plant communities
IntroductionSemi-natural dry grasslands are among the species-richest and most diverse habitats in Europe especially in the Mediterranean Basin. They evolved with long-term severe environmental constraints, either biotic (e.g., grazing or mowing) or abiotic (e.g., dryness or oligotrophy). Their reco...
