Dry matter production and partition of two palatable Karoo shrubs

摘要：

It is taken for granted that Karoo shrubs (bushes) are well adapted to only the soils and climate of the Nama Karoo biome in South Africa.The easterly movement of Karoo vegetation into the Grassland biome (dominated by grasses) is however well documented, while ecosystems responding to global climate change are a new debate.The dry matter (DM ) production and structure of two palatable shrubs from the Nama Karoo biome were evaluated on two different soil types.
