Foliar nutrient concentrations and stoichiometry should not be assumed to diagnose nutrient limitation
Abstract Nutrient concentrations in foliage are often used to infer whether growth of a species at a particular site is likely limited by low supply of soil nutrients. Sometimes ratios of nutrient elements (stoichiometry) are thought to be useful, as if a higher supply of one element might somehow p...
