Compartmentalized Homeostasis Drives High Bamboo Forest Productivity under Nutrient Imbalance
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study reveals how Moso bamboo achieves high productivity despite nutrient‐poor soils. It employs a unique strategy, maintaining strict nutrient balance in its leaves while using woody tissues as flexible storage reservoirs. This compartmentalized mechanism buffers the plant from soil phosphorus limitation and microbial competition, resolving the ...
