Impacts of C₄ grass introductions on soil carbon and nitrogen cycling in C₃-dominated successional systems

While recent research has focused on the effects of exotic plant species on ecosystem properties, less is known about how restoring individual native plant species, differing in biomass and tissue chemistry, may impact ecosystems. We examined how three native C₄ prairie grasses affected soil C and N...
