Root anatomical traits determined leaf-level physiology and responses to precipitation change of herbaceous species in a temperate steppe

Meng Zhou et al.

Summary: Root anatomy plays important roles in controlling leaf water relations in temperate grasslands. Variations in anatomical traits of absorptive roots among plant groups drive differences in leaf physiological traits and diverse responses to precipitation change. These findings highlight the significant roles of root anatomical traits in driving leaf-level physiological processes in temperate grasslands.

Vegetation recovery alters soil N status in subtropical karst plateau area: Evidence from natural abundance δ15N and δ18O

Jing Wang et al.

Summary: Forest recovery can promote soil nitrogen recovery and reduce nitrogen loss in karst plateau, but nitrogen limitation persists throughout forest recovery stages. The relationship between surface soil delta N-15 and plant delta N-15 indicates that plant biomass recovery is a main contributor to soil nitrogen recovery. The difference between litter delta N-15 and soil total nitrogen delta N-15 suggests plants rely heavily on mycorrhizal fungi for nitrogen acquisition.
