Seed nutrient is more stable than leaf in response to changing multiple resources in an alpine meadow ...
Abstract Background It has been long thought that nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) concentrations and their ratios (N:P) in metabolically active or functional organs (i.e., leaves) are less responsive to environmental changes. Little attention, however, has been paid to the reproductive organs—seeds, wh...
