Abstract
⺠We studied effects of plant-plant interactions on rhizosphere priming effects (RPE). ⺠Sunflower, soybean and wheat were grown as monocultures or as mixtures. ⺠RPE was studied by continuous 13C labeling of the monocultures and of the mixtures. ⺠All planted treatments induced positive RPE (43%-136% of the unplanted control). ⺠Inter-species interactions can reduce the intensity of priming on SOM decomposition.
