Stoichiometry of root and leaf nitrogen and phosphorus in a dry alpine steppe on the Northern Tibetan Plateau.
Leaf nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) have been used widely in the ecological stoichiometry to understand nutrient limitation in plant. However,few studies have focused on the relationship between root nutrients and environmental factors. The main objective of this study was to clarify the pattern of...
