Climate, soil and plant functional types as drivers of global fine‐root trait variation (2017, background): “This high root N concentration could be explained by the positive effect that nutrient availability (e.g. via N2-fixation) has on the nutrient concentration of all plant organs, in line with the luxury consumption hypothesis (Chapin 1980; Xia & Wan 2008).”
Patterns and mechanisms of responses by soil microbial communities to nitrogen addition (2017, methodology): “Summarizing from previous metaanalyses (LeBauer and Treseder, 2008; Xia and Wan, 2008; Janssens et al., 2010; Peng et al., 2017), however, simulated N deposition experiments were generally applied very high N addition rates.”
Responses of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria and archaea to nitrogen fertilization and precipitation increment in a typical temperate steppe in Inner Mongolia (2013, background): “Because both N and water are key factors limiting plant growth in terrestrial ecosystems (Hooper and Johnson, 1999; Xia and Wan, 2008), changes in their availability will have profound influences on ecosystem processes, including underground microorganism functions.”
Plant community responses to nitrogen addition and increased precipitation: the importance of water availability and species traits (2011, background): “For example, N addition generally favors a few species that adapt to quick exploitation of available resources such as grass species, resulting in greater biomass stimulation of these species (Xia & Wan, 2008).”
Can optimal defence theory be used to predict the distribution of plant chemical defences? (2010, neutral): “Another way to determine value is to use the concentration of nitrogen in tissues, because nitrogen is often a limiting nutrient in terrestrial ecosystems (Xia & Wan 2008).”
The Palaearctic steppe biome: a new synthesis (2016, background): “2009), while data from drylands are much sparser due to a general focus on water rather than nutrient limitation (Austin 2011; Xia and Wan 2008).”
Soil acidification exerts a greater control on soil respiration than soil nitrogen availability in grasslands subjected to long‐term nitrogen enrichment (2016, background): “Our results show that the BB and root N content of the five dominant plant species increased with N enrichment; these changes are consistent with a previous meta-analysis (Xia & Wan 2008).”
Plant functional diversity modulates global environmental change effects on grassland productivity (2018, background): “Consistent with water and nitrogen being common limiting resources, many studies have reported positive response of terrestrial productivity to increased water (Sala & Parton, 1988; Yang, Fang, Ma, & Wang, 2008) and nitrogen (LeBauer & Treseder, 2008; Xia & Wan, 2008) input.”
