Effect of light and nitrogen supply on internal C:N balance and control of root-to-shoot biomass allocation in grapevine (2007, background): “1999). Ericsson (1995) pointed out that the exact mechanism behind the reduced leaf growth is not fully known, but cell wall loosening and incorporation of new cell wall material (xyloglucan) are processes negatively affected under Nlimiting growth conditions.”
Production of external mycelium by ectomycorrhizal fungi in a norway spruce forest was reduced in response to nitrogen fertilization (2003, background): “Phosphorus deficiency results in increased allocation of carbon from shoots to roots by trees, while the opposite is true for K (Eriksson, 1995).”
Influence of Environmental Variability on Root Dynamics in Northern Forests (2009, background): “Increased N availability has been commonly reported to decrease the proportional allocation of biomass to roots compared to shoots (Axelsson and Axelsson, 1986; Birk and Vitousek, 1986; Gower et al., 1992; Ericsson, 1995; Pregitzer et al., 1995; Albaugh et al., 1998; Coleman et al., 2004).”
Fertilization of boreal forest reduces both autotrophic and heterotrophic soil respiration (2005, background): “This reflects the high cost of foraging for nutrients in a strongly nutrient-limited system (Ericsson, 1995; Waring et al., 1998; Giardina et al., 2003; Lamersdorf & Borken, 2004).”
Resource stoichiometry elucidates the structure and function of arbuscular mycorrhizas across scales. (2010, unknown): “The functional equilibrium model predicts that enrichment of light or CO2 should cause plants to allocate more biomass to roots (Brouwer, 1983; Ericsson, 1995) and mycorrhizas (Fig.”
Root Development and Nutrient Uptake (2006, background): “In contrast, a high rate of N supply to the entire root system is usually associated with a reduced allocation of resources to root growth (Ericsson, 1995).”
Responses of wetland graminoids to the relative supply of nitrogen and phosphorus (2004, background): “The same type of phenotypic plasticity has been observed in response to nitrogen N supply under Nlimited conditions and in response to phosphorus P supply under P-limited conditions Wilson 1988; Ingestad and Agren 1991; Ericsson 1995; Ryser et al. 1997.”
Canopy effects on vegetation caused by harvesting and regeneration treatments (2010, background): “…height development of European beech compared to higher values for the intermediate shade-tolerant species, Fraxinus excelsior (Emborg 1998) and sycamore maple (Petritan et al. 2007), as well as in the light-demanding species, Scots pine (Dai 1996; Harrington 2006) and silver birch (Ericsson 1995).”
The allometry of reproductive biomass in response to land use in Tibetan alpine grasslands. (2009, background): “For example, Ericsson (1995) found that Betula pendula seedlings can change the shoot : root allocation along a nutrient gradient.”
Allocation, plasticity and allometry in plants (2004, background): “The question becomes when do plants show fixed allometric growth trajectories and when do they show plastic allometry? This may be a function of organs or functions involved (Weiner & Fishman 1994), the specific resources limiting growth (Ericsson 1995), the source of the resource limitation (Gersan”
Mycorrhizal mediation of plant N acquisition and residue decomposition: Impact of mineral N inputs (2006, background): “…sufficient N supply to the plant is important for the development of an extensive mycelium (Hawkins & George, 1999; Treseder & Allen, 2002), but excessive N may reduce plant C allocation belowground and consequently reduce host root availability needed for mycelium development (Ericsson, 1995).”
Acquisition of phosphorus and nitrogen in the rhizosphere and plant growth promotion by microorganisms (2009, background): “Root growth and morphological responses to nitrogen The size and architecture of the root system is an important feature for ensuring adequate access to soil N, and root system size (relative to shoot growth) has generally been shown to increase when N is limiting (Chapin 1980; Ericsson 1995).”
Rock-eating mycorrhizas: their role in plant nutrition and biogeochemical cycles (2008, background): “mycorrhizal fungi (Ericsson 1995).”
