Genetic control of root/shoot biomass partitioning in barley seedlings [PDF]
The process of allocating resources to different plant organs in the early stage of development can affect their adaptation to drought conditions, by influencing water uptake, transpiration, photosynthesis, and carbon storage.

Patterns of plant biomass partitioning depend on nitrogen source. [PDF]
Nitrogen (N) availability is a strong determinant of plant biomass partitioning, but the role of different N sources in this process is unknown.

Carbon Assimilation, Biomass Partitioning and Productivity in Grasses [PDF]
Plant growth correlates with net carbon gain on a whole plant basis. Over the last several decades, the driving factors shaping plant morphology and performance have become increasingly clear.

Effect of intraspecific competition on biomass partitioning of Larix principis-rupprechtii
It is acknowledged that trees biomass allocation in response to environmental conditions. However, it remains poorly understood what strategies of plant biomass allocation with inter- and intraspecific interactions of tree species in forest stands.

Predicting growth and development of pigeonpea: biomass accumulation and partitioning [PDF]
Examining physiological relationships that quantify the processes of interception of radiation and biomass accumulation and partitioning provide one avenue for understanding limits to pigeon pea productivity. The radiation extinction coefficient (k), radiation use efficiency (RUE), partitioning of biomass between leaf and stem before flowering, and the

Partition of biomass and nitrogen in a potato crop under three nitrogen fertilization treatments
Nitrogen nutrition considerably influences the process of growing and producing potato crops. The aim of this study was to determine the effects of nitrogen nutrition on the pattern of biomass and nitrogen partitioning during the growth of potato crop in

Asymmetric response of above- and below ground biomass of C3- and C4-dominated grasslands to aridity
Assessing the dynamics of grassland functioning is critical for gaining an understanding of their feedback on rising aridity. In attempting to understand the response of grassland ecosystem functioning to aridity, the (i) relationships between biomass ...

Dispersal-mediated trophic interactions can generate apparent patterns of dispersal limitation in aquatic metacommunities [PDF]
Dispersal is a major organising force in metacommunities, which may facilitate compositional responses of local communities to environmental change and affect ecosystem function.

Intermediate coupling between aboveground and belowground biomass maximises the persistence of grasslands [PDF]
Aboveground and belowground biomass compartments of vegetation fulfil different functions and they are coupled by complex interactions. These compartments exchange water, carbon and nutrients and the belowground biomass compartment has the capacity to ...
