Plant Phenotypic Plasticity Belowground: A Phylogenetic Perspective on Root Foraging Trade‐Offs
Download2005
Cahill Jr, J. F., Kembel, S. W.
Many plants proliferate roots in nutrient patches, presumably increasing nutrient uptake and plant fitness. Nutrient heterogeneity has been hypothesized to maintain community diversity because of a trade‐off between the spatial extent over which plants forage (foraging scale) and their ability to...
