Prediction of plant diversity under different stocking rates based on functional traits of constructive species in a desert steppe, northern China
Excessive grazing causes a decrease in plant diversity of grassland and also leads to changes in the functional traits of grassland plants. Based on the relationship between plant diversity and the functional traits of constructive species, the patterns of change in plant diversity can be predicted...
