Species composition influences soil nutrient depletion and plant physiology in prairie agroenergy feedstocks

Abstract High‐diversity mixtures of perennial tallgrass prairie vegetation could be useful biomass feedstocks for marginal farmland in the Midwestern United States. These agroenergy crops can help meet cellulosic agrofuel targets while also enhancing other ecosystem services on the landscape. One pr...
