Differences in Root Nitrogen Uptake Between Tropical Lowland Rainforests and Oil Palm Plantations

Conversion of lowland tropical rainforests to intensely fertilized agricultural land-use systems such as oil palm (Elaeis guineensis) plantations leads to changes in nitrogen (N) cycling. Although soil microbial-driven N dynamics has been largely studied, the role of the plant as a major component i...
