Biomass allocation between reproductive and vegetative organs of Artemisia along a large environmental gradient [PDF]
Background Biomass allocation reflects functional tradeoffs among plant organs and thus represents life history strategies. However, little is known about the patterns and drivers of biomass allocation between reproductive and vegetative organs along ...

Nitrogen fixation and fertilization have similar effects on biomass allocation in nitrogen‐fixing plants [PDF]
Plants adjust their allocation to different organs based on nutrient supply. In some plant species, symbioses with nitrogen‐fixing bacteria that live in root nodules provide an alternate pathway for nitrogen acquisition.

Pattern and control of biomass allocation across global forest ecosystems
AbstractThe underground part of a tree is an important carbon sink in forest ecosystems. Understanding biomass allocation between the below‐ and aboveground parts (root:shoot ratios) is necessary for estimation of the underground biomass and carbon pool.

Will biomass be used for bioenergy or transportationbiofuels? What drivers will influence biomass allocation [PDF]
Potential competition for biomass for current and future bioenergy/biofuel uses in Brazil, Denmark, Sweden and the USA were compared. In each of these countries, bioenergy and biofuels are already important in their energy mix. However, there is limited competition for biomass between bioenergy (heat/power/residential/industrial) and transportation ...
