Cattle grazing increases microbial biomass and alters soil nematode communities in subtropical pastures (2006, background): “In other studies grazers either reduced microbial biomass or had no effects on microbial biomass (Harrison and Bardgett, 2004; Sakaran and Augustine, 2004; Tracy and Frank, 1998).”
Tree physiological responses to above-ground herbivory directly modify below-ground processes of soil carbon and nitrogen cycling (2004, background): “Pastor et al. 1993; Wardle et al. 2001; Harrison & Bardgett 2004 ), depending on the relative importance of various mechanisms that operate as a result of grazing or browsing (Bardgett et al. 1998; Bardgett & Wardle 2003).”
Soil‐mediated effects of invasive ungulates on native tree seedlings (2014, background): “…(i.e. high concentrations of structural carbohydrates and chemical defence compounds, low nutrient concentrations) also result in poor-quality litter that slowly decomposes, thus reducing nutrient mineralization rates (Grime et al. 1996; Wardle, Bonner & Barker 2002; Harrison & Bardgett 2004).”
An integrated perspective to explain nitrogen mineralization in grazed ecosystems (2013, background): “…(Ritchie t al., 1998; Augustine and McNaughton, 1998; Knops et al., 2000; 2 e f p volution and Systematics 15 (2013) 32– 44 ardle et al., 2002; Harrison and Bardgett, 2004; Persson et al., 005; Pastor et al., 2006). oil physical conditions The other major pathway via which herbivores can…”
