Degraded rangelands around the world may benefit from the reestablishment of lost biological soil crusts (biocrusts, soil surface cryptogamic-microbial communities). Cultivation of biocrust organisms
The biological soil crust (biocrust) has many crucial ecological functions in dryland ecosystems. Differentiation of soil microbial biomass in different ecosystems’ biocrust under various climatic and
Biological soil crusts (biocrusts) dominate soil surfaces in drylands, providing services that include soil stabilization and carbon uptake. In this study, we investigated the direct and b
