Long-term fertilization determines different metabolomic profiles and responses in saplings of three rainforest tree species with different adult canopy position.
BACKGROUND:Tropical rainforests are frequently limited by soil nutrient availability. However, the response of the metabolic phenotypic plasticity of trees to an increase of soil nutrient availabilities is poorly understood. We expected that increases in the ability of a nutrient that limits some pl...
