Direct uptake of organically derived carbon by grass roots and allocation in leaves and phytoliths: <sup>13</sup>C labeling evidence

Direct uptake of organically derived carbon by grass roots and allocation in leaves and phytoliths: <sup>13</sup>C labeling evidence

In the rhizosphere, the uptake of low-molecular-weight carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) by plant roots has been well documented. While organic N uptake relative to total uptake is important, organic C uptake is supposed to be low relative to the plant's C budget. Recently, radiocarbon analyses demon...
