摘要: Abstract Enriched nutrient patches within natural soil represent an important source of nutrients for tree growth. In the present study, pot experiments in a heterogeneous environment were conducted to investigate influence light conditions and interspecific competition on root foraging traits seedling growth Pinus massoniana Schima superba. The scale whole-seedling biomass both species decreased by shading. result this treatment was lower sensitivity heterogeneity plants that underwent shading than exposed full-light conditions. above-ground S. superba not affected with P. massoniana. contrast, negatively more rapid rate extension efficient resource uptake S.superba appear expl...
