• Seasonal controls on grassland microbial biogeography: Are they governed by plants, abiotic properties or both? (2014, background): “Biomass removal by cutting or mowing is known to increase root exudation (Kuzyakov et al., 2002) and several studies have shown positive effects of plant defoliation on microbial biomass and/or activity (Mawdsley and Bardgett, 1997; Macdonald et al., 2006).”
