Inferior plant competitor allocates more biomass to belowground as a result of greater competition for resources in heterogeneous habitats
Nutrient heterogeneity in soil widely exists in nature and can have significant impacts on plant growth, biomass allocation, and competitive interactions. However, limited research has been done to investigate the interspecific competitive intensity between two clonal species in a heterogeneous habi...
