2021, Science of the Total EnvironmentCitation Excerpt :Root respiration is attributed to plant physiological functions, so it seems reasonable that the Ra flux depends mainly on the vegetation class and that the plant growth activity can influence this flux (Han et al., 2017; Ru et al., 2018; Sagar et al., 2019; Liu et al., 2019). The root growth and root mortality are highly seasonal, with active growth from the late spring to early summer and a substantial mortality in the fall (Fitter et al., 1998; McNaughton et al., 1998; Pregitzer et al., 2000; Wang et al., 2009). Root respiration increased during this time and it is assumed that higher root respiration rates may have resulted from high physiological activity associated with root growth (Miao et al., 2020).

2015, Agricultural and Forest MeteorologyCitation Excerpt :As far as root respiration is attributed to the plant physiological functions it seems reasonable that this flux depends on vegetation type and plant growth activity. Plant roots can contribute from 10 to 90% of total carbon flux from soil dependent upon vegetation type and growth activity (e.g. Wang et al., 2006; 2009). Yevdokimov et al. (2010) reported that root contribution in grassland ecosystems varied from 24 to 60%, in forests—from 7 to 56%.
Soil carbon balance in a tropical grassland: Estimation of soil respiration and its partitioning using a semi-empirical model
2012, Agricultural and Forest MeteorologyCitation Excerpt :However, our estimates of root production (3.7 tC ha−1 year−1) and heterotrophic respiration (4.3 tC ha−1 year−1) were similar to the value of RH (3.5 tC ha−1 year−1) derived from estimates of the amount and mean residence time of the labile soil C at a nearby savannah site (Epron et al., 2009). Our model based on relatively simple assumptions managed to give estimates of RH that were in the range of values reported for several tropical and dry grasslands (Subke et al., 2006; Wang et al., 2009). The total below-ground carbon flow (TBCF; Litton and Giardina, 2008), i.e. the amount of C allocated below ground to support RA and root production (TBCF = RA + root production) was 9.24 tC ha−1 year−1 on average for the two years, indicating a carbon-use efficiency (CUE) for the below-ground system (CUEb = root production/TBCF) of about 0.40, which is of the same order of magnitude as the CUEb estimated for a wide range of ecosystems (0.38–0.41 in forests, Litton et al., 2007; Maier et al., 2004; and 0.50 in semi-arid grasslands, Nouvellon et al., 2000b).
