Get on your boots: estimating root biomass and rhizodeposition of peas under field conditions reveals the necessity of field experiments
2019
Aims
More sustainable agricultural systems, which contribute to C sequestration and biological N fixation, require accurate quantification of plant C and N inputs into soils. This has to be conducted under field conditions, as there are serious shortcomings to pot-based experiments, which have dominated studies on rhizodeposition estimation in the past. Therefore, amounts of below-ground plant C, N, and especially the rhizodeposition of peas were quantified in the field more accurately, with particular emphasis on their transfer into different soil compartments during vegetation.
