摘要 | To identify the patterns of aboveground biomass (M-A) and belowground biomass (M-B) partitioning of a tall perennial herbal plant, Rheum tanguticum Maxim. ex Balf. (R. tanguticum), we determined M-A, M-B, total biomass (M-T), and below- to aboveground biomass ratio (M-B/M-A) through three consecutive sampling campaigns during 2016-2018 on the Qinghai-Tibetan plateau. We then documented M-A, M-B, M-T, and M-B/M-A, and their log-log relationship with environmental factors using data from 47 sites. M-B/M-A showed a significant negative relationship with mean annual precipitation (MAP) and altitude but a positive relationship with mean annual temperature (MAT), soil total nitrogen content (TN), and soil humidity (SH). While M-T increased with altitude and decreased with MAT, TN, and SH, but the relationship between MAP and M-T was not significant. Reduced major axis analysis revealed a slope of the log-log relationship between M-A and M-B to be 1.16, supporting an allometric partitioning pattern of R. tanguticum. Furthermore, the scaling exponent revealed different changes to different environmental factors. Specifically, scaling exponent was sensitive to the gradient of MAP and SH, but not to the gradient of altitude, MAT, or TN. This indicated that the scaling exponent was affected by water availability. |
