Fractions of soil phosphorus mediated by rhizospheric phoD-harboring bacteria of deep-rooted desert species are determined by fine-root traits

This experiment was conducted at the Cele Nation Station of Observation and Research for Desert-Grassland Ecosystems (37°00′57′′N, 80°43′45′′E), situated in the ecotone between the Qira Oasis and the Taklamakan Desert in Xinjiang Province, China. PhoD data were derived from rhizosphere and bulk soil samples collected from a pot experiment with one year and three years of phosphorus treatment.
