From: Priority effects of forbs arriving early: the role of root interaction and asymmetric competition
Effects of priority effects of different species on overall pot biomass. The relevant data in the figure do not include root isolation and plant removal treatments. Sync1, all species were simultaneously sown early; Sync2, all species were simultaneously sown late; Lc-first, Leymus chinensis was sown first in mixed community; Mr-first, Medicago ruthenica was sown first in mixed community; Ar-first, Allium ramosum was sown first in mixed community. Different small letters represent significance levels (P < 0.05)
