Higher Soil Mesofauna Abundance and Microbial Activities Drive Litter Decomposition in Subtropical Forests

Higher Soil Mesofauna Abundance and Microbial Activities Drive Litter Decomposition in Subtropical Forests

Soil fauna play an important role in litter decomposition and affect the “home-field advantage” (HFA) of litter decomposition. However, how this effect is modulated by the microenvironment needs further investigation. We conducted a reciprocal transplant experiment of litter decomposition using diff...
