Vertical root distribution of individual species in a mountain grassland community: Does it respond to neighbours?

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

We examined species-specific root vertical distribution in a montane grassland using quantitative real-time PCR. We asked whether individual species differ in their rooting depths, whether such differences are associated with above-ground functional traits (such as height or specific leaf area), and whether they respond to the presence of a competitor. This response was assessed by comparison of species-specific vertical profiles between control plots and plots where the dominant species had been removed. Vertical profiles of individual species varied considerably, from species with most root biomass concentrated in the uppermost (up to 2 cm) soil layer, through species with uniform vertical distribution, to a species with roots predominantly below 8 cm. Species at the fast end of the plant economy spectrum were more likely to place their roots in the uppermost layers. Grassland species, thus, exploit different parts of the below-ground resources in spite of their short stature, minor differences in
