Root morphological plasticity and biomass production of two Chinese fir clones with high phosphorus efficiency under low phosphorus stress
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Available P is the major growth-limiting factor in southern China where Chinese fir ( Cunninghamia lanceolata (Lamb.) Hook.) plantations are increasingly established. Planting P-efficient clones is a viable option to enhance productivity of Chinese fir plantations. Two Chinese fir clones with high P efficiency (M1 and M4) were chosen as the research materials and their adaptive responses to low P stress were examined. The increment in root morphological traits and biomass production of these clones was measured by a sand culture experiment with a heterogeneous P supply. For both clones, P starvation resulted in significantly higher root surface area and root volume but not root length. For clone M4, the mean root diameter was also larger under P deficiency than under normal P supply. Interestingly, the root morphological traits varied substantially within the same root system where the starved roots had higher values for all morphological traits than the nonstarved ones. Phosphorus starvation did not affect shoot and root biomass or the root to shoot ratio, but the whole-plant biomass increment was large under P deficiency for clone M4. In conclusion, the adaptation to low P stress in these clones is attributed to increased P acquisition and utilization efficiencies.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
