Background: The non-structural carbohydrates (NSCs), carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and phosphorus (P) are important energy source or nutrients for all plant growth and metabolism. To persist in shaded understory, saplings have to maintain the
Quantifying changes in interspecific plant growth and physiology under climate warming will facilitate explanation of the shifts in community structure in subtropical forest. We evaluated the effects of 3 years climate warming (ca. 1°C, 2012-2015) on plant growth and physiological parameters of six
Simulated nitrogen deposition experiments in forests have mainly used understory nitrogen application, i.e., they failed to consider how canopy interception may alter the effects of nitrogen deposition on forest plants. This study used canopy addition of nitrogen, understory addition of nitrogen,
