Fine root vertical distribution and temporal dynamics in mature stands of two enset (Enset ventricosum Welw Cheesman) clones

Quantification of the role of fine roots in the biological cycle of nutrients necessitates understanding root distribution, estimating root biomass, turnover rate and nutrient concentrations, and the dynamics of these parameters in perennial systems. Temporal dynamics, vertical distribution, annual...
