Water distribution and association in plant vessels and soil pores in a shrub-encroached grassland
Woody plant encroachment is a significant ecological challenge for grassland ecosystems worldwide. Soil water is the major limiting factor for plant growth in arid and semiarid grasslands, which are highly vulnerable to woody plant encroachment. Xylem vessels and soil pores are highly associated bet...
