Fine root biomass of European beech trees in different soil layers show different responses to season, climate, and soil nutrients

Fine roots are crucial for water and nutrient acquisition in plants; yet it is unknown how nutrient inputs and soil fertility in forests influence fine root biomass seasonal trajectories. Here, we hypothesized that standing fine root biomass increases with addition of a limited resource and shows di...
