Differential Nitrogen Cycling in Semiarid Sub-Shrubs with Contrasting Leaf Habit

Nitrogen (N) is, after water, the most limiting resource in semiarid ecosystems. However, knowledge on the N cycling ability of semiarid woody plants is still very rudimentary. This study analyzed the seasonal change in the N concentrations and pools of the leaves and woody organs of two species of...
