C:N:P stoichiometry of Artemisia species and close relatives across northern China: unravelling effects of climate, soil and taxonomy (2015, background): “This is consistent with the recent study on karst plants in China (Hao, Kuang & Kang 2015), in which leaf elements were also less closely related to climatic factors than to soil conditions.”
Leaf element concentrations of terrestrial plants across China are influenced by taxonomy and the environment (2012, result): “This result is consistent with the results of Han et al. (2005) from China and Townsend et al. (2007) around the world, but contradicts other studies that showed decreasing leaf N/P ratio with increasing latitude at global or regional scales (Reich & Oleksyn, 2004; Zheng & Shangguan, 2007).”
Stoichiometry of potassium is largely determined by water availability and growth in Catalonian forests (2012, unknown): “Functional Ecology © 2012 British Ecological Society Rodà & Peñuelas 2006; Zheng & Shangguan 2007; Sardans, Rivas-Ubach & Peñuelas 2011).”
The elemental stoichiometry of aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems and its relationships with organismic lifestyle and ecosystem structure and function: a review and perspectives (2011, background): “:P ratios with latitude have been observed in a screening of 126 higher plants of the Loess Plateau in China (Zheng and Shangguan 2007).”
Tree growth changes with climate and forest type are associated with relative allocation of nutrients, especially phosphorus, to leaves and wood (2013, unknown): “:P content ratios in leaves were lower in the conifers, mostly fast-growing species, while this variable was not significantly different between evergreens and deciduous trees as observed in other areas of the world, for example the Chinese flora (Zheng & Shangguan, 2007).”
