Abstract:Little is known about below‐ground competition in mixed‐species plantations under increasing nitrogen (N) deposition. This study aims to determine the effects of N addition on root competition in coniferous and broad‐leaved species mixed plantations. A pot experiment was conducted using the coniferous species Cunninghamia lanceolata and the broad‐leaved species Phoebe chekiangensis planted in mixed plantations with different competition intensities under N addition (0 or 45 kg N ha−1 yr−1). Biomass allocation,… Show more
