We explored the relationship between responses of leaf and fine root litter decomposition to litter mixing, and analyzed how trait dissimilarity and responses of decomposition of the organic components (soluble compounds, hemicellulose, cellulose, and lignin) shape it by conducting a 1.4-year field experiment with 630 litterbags, including six species decomposing individually and in paired mixtures in a temperate typical steppe.

本研究通过在温带典型草原 (temperate typical steppe) 开展为期1.4年的野外原位实验，共布设630个凋落物袋 (litterbag)，涵盖6个物种的单种分解与配对混合分解两种处理方式，旨在探究叶片与细根凋落物分解 (leaf and fine root litter decomposition) 对凋落物混合 (litter mixing) 的响应之间的关联，并解析性状差异度 (trait dissimilarity) 以及可溶性化合物 (soluble compounds)、半纤维素 (hemicellulose)、纤维素 (cellulose) 与木质素 (lignin) 等有机组分 (organic components) 的分解响应如何调控该关联。
