Abstract
Aims In most ecosystems, plant roots from different species decompose in mixtures and in the presence of living roots; however much root decomposition research has focused on how roots of individual species or artificial mixtures decompose in the absence of living plants. We thus examined two poorly studied components of root litter decomposition: 1) whether decomposition of root mixtures can be predicted from the sum of the decomposition rates of each component species and 2) how living plants influence rates of root decomposition.
