New perspectives under heterogeneity: mechanism of nutrient heterogeneity on Cd-induced hormesis of soil respiration by Qian Gao, Jiangshan Yang, Junyang Wu, Yongli Zhu, Yongli Zhu, Diwu Fan, Jiangang Han, Jiangang Han

“…To examine the effects of nutrient spatial heterogeneity on the hormesis of soil ecosystem under cadmium (Cd) stress, we constructed three patches with different spatial nutrient distribution but the same total nutrient content through different spatial discharge patterns. Different levels of Cd stress were applied to the patches, and after incubation, soil respiration rate, content of dissolved organic matter (DOM) and metagenomic characteristics were measured. …”
