Figure 6From: Similarity and difference in vegetation structure of three desert shrub communities under the same temperate climate but with different microhabitatsRatios of dead biomass to whole biomass (dead + live) in aboveground (AGB), belowground (BGB) and total biomass (TB) of total species in three communities (EDC, STC and ASC) in early autumn. Bars represent one standard error. Different letters indicate significant (P < 0.05) differences between ratios for communities in AGB, BGB or TB.Back to article page
