Abstract
The distribution pattern of perennial native grasses in the dune systems of the Monte desert might be determined by the ability of plant roots to acquire water under drought conditions in different topographical positions and soil substrates. This study examined differences in root traits of two species growing in sand dunes, Aristida mendocina and Panicum urvilleanum, and two species growing in interdune valleys, Pappophorum caespitosum and...
