Description

A factorial greenhouse experiment testing effects of 3°C warming and species interactions on biomass production of a hemiparasitic plant and its grass host. Plants were grown in ambient vs. warmed greenhouse bays under controlled conditions for 70 days.

Typical Equipment

• greenhouse bays
• supplemental lights (Pro 1000° 120/240 DE US, Gavita Holland bv)
• data loggers (HOBO MX2302, Onset)
• dissecting microscope
• drying oven
• precision balance (0.1 mg)

Output Measurements

• aboveground biomass
• belowground biomass
• root:shoot ratios
• haustorial connection counts
