Are competitive interactions influenced by spatial nutrient heterogeneity and root foraging behavior?

•  Nutrient heterogeneity, root foraging and competitive interactions were investigated for six species native to south-eastern USA. •  Monocultures, two- and six-species garden plots were fertilized to create spatially homogeneous or heterogeneous nutrient conditions. After 3.5 months, root prolife...
