Fast-cycling unit of root turnover in perennial herbaceous plants in a cold temperate ecosystem.

Scientific reports - 21 Jan 2016

Sun Kai, McCormack M Luke, Li Le, Ma Zeqing, Guo Dali

Abstract excerpt

Roots of perennial plants have both persistent portion and fast-cycling units represented by different levels of branching. In woody species, the distal nonwoody branch orders as a unit are born and die together relatively rapidly (within 1-2 years). However, whether the fast-cycling units also exist in perennial herbs is unknown. We monitored root demography of seven perennial herbs over two years in a cold...
