In this study, however, grazing by domestic yak was noted to mediate this effect, affecting both the body mass and behaviors of plateau pika, <i>Ochotona curzoniae</i>, which deviated from expected ecological patterns. Specifically, we compared conditions of plateau pika at 16 trap sites across a range of habitats on the Tibetan plateau, each characterized by herders according to their seasonal use as winter, spring, or summer pastures, and to their vegetative conditions. Plateau pika body mass at herders' tent sites where female and young domestic yak sleep was about 6% higher than at yak foraging sites and 10% higher than fenced areas (where yak are excluded) despite the additional disturbance encountered at tent sites. Mean body mass of plateau pika also decreased with increasing slope, and adult body mass was lower in spring compared to winter and summer seasons. Furthermore, more pika burrows were found near herders' tent sites, with burrows exhibiting significantly lower vegetation cover. Pika foraging behavior was most frequent in yak bedding areas (near herders' tent sites), and pika vigilant behavior at yak foraging areas. Recalling that foraging and vigilant (predator avoidance) behaviors constitute energy trade-offs, we speculate that these unexpected findings may result from the combined effects of soil erosion (due to surface disturbances) and fertilization (with yak dung) at yak resting sites, which could enable higher population densities and body masses of plateau pika despite lower vegetation cover at the tent sites – most likely due to critical behavioral adaptations, ecological dynamics such as predator-prey relations and other multi-dimensional and nonlinear reasons.</p>","PeriodicalId":56078,"journal":{"name":"Grassland Science","volume":"68 4","pages":"343-353"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2022-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/grs.12375","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49484029","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Not many studies have looked into the effects of fertilizers in improving orchardgrass persistence within acidic soils. We conducted experiments on 64 individual potted orchardgrass plants, which were defoliated to 5 cm and assigned to one of the following four treatment groups: unfertilized control (CNT), chemical fertilizer (CHE), grazing cattle dung (DNG), and cattle manure compost (CMP). Half the pots in each treatment received aluminum sulfate solution to induce further soil acidification (Al-add), while the others received water (no-Al). On days 20 and 47, after defoliation, soil properties and dry weights of aboveground biomass (AGB) (separated into leaves and stubble) and roots of four pots in each treatment group were measured. Al-add induced soil acidification in all fertilizers across the experiment (<i>p</i> &lt; 0.05).

The results revealed that proximate compositions, mineral and AAs varied significantly among the forage species. The carbohydrate, crude protein, moisture content, crude fat, crude fiber, crude ash, total phenol, oil absorption capacity and water absorption capacity were found in the range of 17.44–37.27 mg/100 mg, 3.34–14.71 mg/100 mg, 88.73%–90.72%, 0.98–2.32 mg/100 mg, 11.16–24.16%, 7.71–34.49%, 292.50–488.12 μg/100 mg, 3.91–4.67 g/g and 2.64–3.41 g/g, respectively.
