Contrasting resource allocation patterns in Sedum lanceolatum Torr.: Biomass versus energy estimates
Biomass determinations and microbomb calorimetry were used to assess resource allocation in Sedum lanceolatum Torr. between 2,257 and 3,726 m above sea level in the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains, Colorado, USA. In general, energy values did not differ within a tissue among sites, but did differ among tissue types. Flowers and leaves had the greatest energy content per gram ashfree dry weight. Total kilojoules per plant were homogeneous along the elevational gradient.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/47753/1/442_2004_Article_BF00379785.pd
