Leaf Phosphorus Fractions Are Coordinated with Leaf Functional Traits in Four Juvenile Tree Species from the Chinese Subtropics by Lei Wang, Jinhong Guan, Zongpei Li, Zhijie Chen, Zaipeng Yu, Zhichao Xia

“…Structural equation modeling (SEM) revealed that foliar P allocation was primarily driven by leaf functional traits independent of soil properties. These findings underscore the critical role of leaf functional traits in shaping P allocation patterns and highlight the adaptive strategies of tree species to cope with P-deficient environments in subtropical ecosystems.…”
