Changes of Aboveground and Belowground Biomass Allocation in Four Dominant Grassland Species Across a Precipitation Gradient

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Climate change is predicted to affect plant growth, but also the allocation of biomass to aboveground and belowground plant parts. To date, studies have mostly focused on aboveground biomass, while belowground biomass and allocation patterns have ...

Biomass Allocation of Stoloniferous and Rhizomatous Plant in Response to Resource Availability: A Phylogenetic Meta-Analysis [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2016
Resource allocation to different functions is central in life-history theory. Plasticity of functional traits allows clonal plants to regulate their resource allocation to meet changing environments.

Precipitation and nitrogen addition enhance biomass allocation to aboveground in an alpine steppe

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2019
There are two important allocation hypotheses in plant biomass allocation: allometric and isometric. We tested these two hypotheses in an alpine steppe using plant biomass allocation under nitrogen (N) addition and precipitation (Precip) changes at a ...

Nitrogen fixation and fertilization have similar effects on biomass allocation in nitrogen‐fixing plants [PDF]

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
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.

Carbon neutrality of forest biomass for bioenergy: a scoping review

open access: yesiForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry, 2023
The exploitation of forest biomass for bioenergy is commonly perceived as part of a broad strategy for climate change mitigation due to the view that forest biomass is carbon neutral.

A response of biomass and nutrient allocation to the combined effects of soil nutrient, arbuscular mycorrhizal, and root-knot nematode in cherry tomato

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
IntroductionThe biomass and nutrient allocation strategies in plants are fundamental for predicting carbon storage and mineral and nutrient cycles in terrestrial ecosystems.

Will biomass be used for bioenergy or transportationbiofuels? What drivers will influence biomass allocation [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers of Agricultural Science and Engineering, 2017
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 ...

Adaptive strategies for culm form and aboveground biomass allocation of clonal ramets in interface area of mixed forest with Pleioblastus amarus-Cunninghamia lanceolata

open access: yesGuangxi Zhiwu, 2023
Pleioblastus amarus, a bamboo species with wide distribution, can be utilized for its high quality shoot and timber. In order to explore the change characteristics of the culm form and the biomass distribution pattern of aboveground components in the ...

Shrubland biomass and root-shoot allocation along a climate gradient in China [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Background – Shrublands are receiving increasing attention because of climate change. However, knowledge about biomass allocation of shrublands at the community level and how this is regulated by climate is of limited availability but critical for ...
