Cover crop diversity generates complex rhizo-microbiome networks by improving soil properties
Agricultural soils face significant microbial disruption due to chemical inputs and continuous cropping. Cover crops offer a potential strategy to restore soil microbial health, yet the influence of cover crop species richness on root and rhizosphere microbiomes remains poorly understood. In this study, we evaluated th...
