Effects of nitrogen and phosphorus supply on growth rate, leaf stoichiometry, and nutrient resorption of Arabidopsis thaliana (2014, unknown): “Some studies have supported the GRH for higher plants (Lovelock et al. 2007; Niklas and Cobb 2005; Vrede et al. 2004), but some studies have showed that the applicability of the GRH to higher plants should be revised (Ågren 2004, 2008; Cernusak et al.”
IS THE GROWTH RATE HYPOTHESIS APPLICABLE TO MICROALGAE? 1 (2010, background): “Indeed, Sterner and Elser (2002) acknowledge that there are problems in attempting to do so, noting that the lack of agreement of the GRH in many photosynthetic organisms, which they believe could result from the very large RUBISCO content (see Vrede et al. 2004).”
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): “This model for terrestrial plants is reminiscent of those we have mentioned in freshwater ecosystems (Vrede et al. 1999, 2004).”
Widespread intraspecific organismal stoichiometry among populations of the Trinidadian guppy (2012, background): “%P content because it modulates the concentrations of mRNA, which is P-rich (Vrede et al. 2004).”
Foliar and soil concentrations and stoichiometry of nitrogen and phosphorous across European Pinus sylvestris forests: relationships with climate, N deposition and tree growth (2016, background): “:P ratio has been associated with a higher growth rate capacity, especially when the concentrations of both N and P are high (Vrede, Andersen & Hessen 1999; Vrede et al. 2004).”
Stoichiometric variation in C:N, C:P, and N:P ratios of littoral benthic invertebrates (2005, methodology): “:P ratios (Elser et al. 2000a, Vrede et al. 2004).”
Tree growth changes with climate and forest type are associated with relative allocation of nutrients, especially phosphorus, to leaves and wood (2013, background): “…growth would be especially significant in environments richer in resources for plant growth and when the concentrations of both nutrients are higher (Vrede et al., 2004; Sardans et al., 2012a and references Global Ecology and Biogeography, 22, 494–507, © 2012 Blackwell Publishing Ltd 503 therein).”
N : P ratios influence litter decomposition and colonization by fungi and bacteria in microcosms (2009, result): “Since the RNA content of microbial cells tends to correlate with microbial growth rate (Vrede et al. 2004), our results are consistent with the idea that cellulose decomposition at high nutrient supply levels was determined by the growth rate of bacteria with high RNA content ('growth rate hypothesi”
Stoichiometrically Explicit Food Webs: Feedbacks between Resource Supply, Elemental Constraints, and Species Diversity (2009, background): “Large variation in phosphorus content among grazer species (Figure 2g) correlates with phosphorus-rich RNA, which then drives growth rate (Elser et al. 1996, Gillooly et al. 2005, Vrede et al. 2004); it can also reflect variation in bone content (Sterner & George 2000, Vanni et al. 2002).”
Diel phosphorus variation and the stoichiometry of ecosystem metabolism in a large spring-fed river (2013, background): “At the cellular level, variation among major biochemicals in the ratios of carbon (C), nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and other elements influences the material requirements for building organelles (e.g., ribosomes) with particular functions (Elser et al. 2000, Vrede et al. 2004).”
The Functional Significance of Ribosomal (r)DNA Variation: Impacts on the Evolutionary Ecology of Organisms (2005, background): “This empirical base has now stimulated several lines of theoretical investigation of the GRH (Ågren 2004, Klausmeier et al. 2004, Vrede et al. 2004).”
