Abstract
Root morphological traits such as root surface area (RSA), root average diameter (RAD), total root length (TRL), specific root area (SRA) and specific root length (SRL) per plant of Lespedeza davurica L. (a C3 perennial leguminous subshrub) were investigated, when intercropped with Bothriochloa ischaemum (Linn.) Keng (a C4 perennial herbaceous grass) in a pot experiment using a replacement series design. The two species were planted in the same pot at density ratios of 12:0
