Intraspecific variation in fine-root traits is larger than in aboveground traits in European herbaceous species regardless of drought

Intraspecific variation in fine-root traits is larger than in aboveground traits in European herbaceous species regardless of drought

Differences within species (Intraspecific trait variation - ITV) contribute substantially to overall trait variability and environmental harshness can reduce among-species variation. While aboveground traits have received considerable attention, knowledge about ITV in fine-root traits and how it dif...
