Large herbivores influence plant litter decomposition by altering soil properties and plant quality in a meadow steppe

Large herbivores act as a major driver of plant litter decomposition in grasslands. The modifications of soil biotic and abiotic properties, as well as the changes in quality (C/N ratio) of plant litter, are two key pathways by which large herbivores can affect litter decomposition. Yet we know litt...
