Leaf litter decomposition differs among genotypes in a local Betula pendula population.

Oecologia - 1 Jul 2007

Abstract excerpt

Ecosystem processes, such as plant litter decomposition, are known to be partly genetically determined, but the magnitude of genetic variation within local populations is still poorly known. We used micropropagated field-grown saplings of 19 Betula pendula genotypes, representing genetic variation in a natural birch population, to examine (1) whether genotype can explain variation in leaf litter decomposition...
