Journal ArticleDOI
Aboveground overyielding in grassland mixtures is associated with reduced biomass partitioning to belowground organs
Holger Bessler,Vicky M. Temperton,Vicky M. Temperton,Christiane Roscher,Nina Buchmann,Bernhard Schmid,Ernst Detlef Schulze,Wolfgang W. Weisser,Christof Engels +8 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that species-rich communities invest less in belowground biomass than do monocultures to extract soil resources, thus leading to increased investment into aboveground organs and overyielding.
Journal ArticleDOI
Leaf and wood carbon isotope ratios, specific leaf areas and wood growth of Eucalyptus species across a rainfall gradient in Australia.
TL;DR: It is concluded that species-specific traits are important in understanding the response of Eucalyptus to rainfall and that the diversity of the genus may reflect its response to the large climatic gradient in Australia.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of nitrogen supply on growth and water-use efficiency of xylem-tapping mistletoes.
TL;DR: Growth rates and the accumulation of N, P, K, and Ca as well as values for carbon-isotope ratios of Mistletoe tissues support the hypothesis that the higher transpiration rates of mistletoes represent a nitrogen-gathering mechanism.
Journal ArticleDOI
Soil and Plant Nitrogen Pools as Related to Plant Diversity in an Experimental Grassland
Yvonne Oelmann,Wolfgang Wilcke,Vicky M. Temperton,Nina Buchmann,Christiane Roscher,Jens Schumacher,Ernst Detlef Schulze,Wolfgang W. Weisser +7 more
TL;DR: Both diversity (either in species or functional groups) and functional composition of grassland mixtures are significant controls of soil and plant N pools and plant communities with more diverse mixture are liable to use limiting resources such as N more effectively.
Journal ArticleDOI
Crown modeling by terrestrial laser scanning as an approach to assess the effect of aboveground intra- and interspecific competition on tree growth
TL;DR: A competition index based on individual crown shapes derived from TLS-data correlated better with target tree growth than an index using conventional geometric crown shape models, and ascribed the highest competitive strength to intraspecific competition.
