Similarities and differences in physiological adaptation to cadmium interactions with nitrogen levels between two aquatic iris life forms in urban wetlands by Zhenzuo Lei, Yuan Jiang, Yanqiong Meng, Yiyong Li, Yucong Li, Tao Hu, Yanjun Ma

“…Specifically, for deciduous irises, the shoot mass (SM) and root-to-shoot ratio (S/R) increased with higher N concentrations, whereas in evergreen irises, these parameters initially increased and then decreased as N levels increased, suggesting that the two life forms have different efficiencies in utilizing N. …”
