Leymus chinensis, a dominant species in the Songnen Plain of northeast China, has a strong ability to resist grazing and tolerate saline-alkali stress. Compensatory growth is a positive response of plants, when subjected to grazing or clipping stress; however, little information is available on how plant nitrogen allocation strategies affect compensatory growth under saline-alkali stress. A field experiment using two saline-alkali levels and three clipping levels was conducted in conjunction with the belowground 15N-urea labelling method. Irrespective of clipping and salt-alkali stress, moderate clipping significantly promoted allocation of newly-absorbed nitrogen (N) to shoots, resulting in high biomass and over-compensatory growth of L. chinensis. However, severe clipping dramatically decreased uptake of total 15N by 20% under saline-alkali conditions, resulting in under-compensatory growth, and plants allocated more N to stem bases than to other plant organs, showing a conservative N allocation strategy. Our results suggest that plants have different nitrogen allocation strategies under different combinations of environmental stresses.
