黄土丘陵区燕沟流域典型植物叶片C、N、P化学计量特征季节变化

Plants adjust their growth rate to adapt to environmental changes throughout their lives.The growth rate can be regulated by leaf carbon∶nitrogen∶phosphorus(C∶N∶P) ratios;therefore,these ratios reflect the adaptability of plants to the external environment.Seasonal variations in leaf C∶N∶P ratios reflect the seasonal variations of plant growth rate.Consequently,researches on the seasonal variations in leaf C∶N∶P ratios can increase our understanding of plant adaptation strategies.For studies on nutrient lim...
