Nitrogen addition has negative effects on bacterial diversity and stability, but simulated grazing mitigates these effects

These results indicate that grazing can buffer nitrogen-induced destabilization of soil microbial communities and highlight its role in maintaining microbial functional stability in grassland ecosystems under increasing nitrogen deposition.
