Luxury Consumption Of Nutrients. It is suggested that the luxury consumption of potassium followed by translocation and reutilization of the potassium in the plant is an important process in the assimilation of potassium by plants. The selective pressure was not therefore the benefit of preventing other species from taking the nutrients up and thereby outcompeting the slowgrowing plants but that of enabling continued growth when nutrients. A possible competitive strategy in above-ground and below-ground biomass allocation and root morphology for slow. Luxury consumption is useful not only for sustaining growth when nutrients become scarce Chapin 1980 but also contributes to reducing nutrient availability and out-competing neighboring plants.
C N-availability in the soil using Plant 1 with heavy line and without light line increased root length. - Luxury consumption of soil nutrients. Luxury consumption of plant nutrients is the absorption of nutrients beyond what the plant needs. Shoot biomass when subjected to experi-mental nutrient enrichment. What is luxury consumption of plant nutrients and what are it advantages and disadvantages. The absorbance of nutrients in excess of the immediate plant growth requirements.
Luxury consumption has been shown to occur during nutrient flushes Chapin 1980 and may simply continue if levels are increased eg.
Describe the soil colloidal complex indicate its various components. The selective pressure was not therefore the benefit of preventing other species from taking the nutrients up and thereby outcompeting the slowgrowing plants but that of enabling continued growth when nutrients. The absorbance of nutrients in excess of the immediate plant growth requirements. There are some special type of plants which storage K nutrient in their body. The increased investment in roots in the fertilized plots found in the field could be explained in the competition model in terms of luxury consumption of nutrients ie. Shoot biomass when subjected to experi-mental nutrient enrichment.
