Increased nitrate uptake by plants in response to nitrogen addition and mowing in a temperate grassland
These findings highlight distinct N acquisition strategies between rhizomatous and bunchgrass species in response to N addition and mowing. The greater uptake of nitrate compared to ammonium aligns with the increasing trend of nitrate deposition. Future rises in nitrate deposition may favour the succession of common plant species, especially dominant ones, potentially enhancing ecosystem stability and mitigating the negative effects of N deposition.
