“…Currently, most studies on fine‐root respiratory thermal acclimation have been conducted in growth chambers or greenhouses (Bryla et al, 2001; Di Iorio et al, 2016; Noh et al, 2020; Rachmilevitch et al, 2008), and data from in situ field warming experiments are extremely limited (Jarvi & Burton, 2018, 2020). These previous studies have indicated that the effects of increased temperature on root respiration vary, with acclimation (Bryla et al, 2001; Di Iorio et al, 2016), partial acclimation (Chen et al, 2021; Jarvi & Burton, 2020), and little or even no acclimation being common (Melillo et al, 2011; Noh et al, 2020). This may be partly related to differences in the population structure of the fine roots sampled, sampling season, and climatic zones among these studies.…”
