Response of the root morphological structure of <i>Fokienia hodginsii</i> seedlings to competition from neighboring plants in a heterogeneous nutrient environment.

The specific root lengths in the competitive and non-competitive treatments showed a clear regularity; the specific root surface area showed a trend similar to that of specific root length, with the specific root area of the homogeneous environment being higher than that of the heterogeneous environment, and that of the homogeneous environment being 68%, 52%, and 57% higher than those of the N, P, and K heterogeneous environments, respectively.
