Effects of stocking rate on the state transition processes of plant community in desert steppe.

Excluding CK, stability based on species composition showed an increasing trend with increasing stocking rate (across the LG-HG gradient).

The study aims to reveal: (1) Plant population state transition network and its driven conversion process between stocking rates; (2) The driving process of the state transition between life type functional groups and plant family level on the state transition of stocking rate; (3) The indicative significance of different state transition processes for grassland management.
