Abstract: By the method of soil core sampling, this paper studied the fine root biomass, soil water content, and soil bulk density in 0-40 cm soil layer of four main vegetation types (Picea crassifolia forest, Pinus tabulaeformis forest, deciduous shrubs, and desert grassland) in Daluo Mountain of Ningxia, and the fine root biomass in the 0-40 cm soil layer of P. crassifolia forests with the ages of 50-, 70-, and 100 a. The fine root biomass of the four vegetation types was mainly distributed in 0-20 cm soil layer, with the rank of P. tabulaeformis forest > P. crassifolia forest > deciduous shrubs > desert grassland, and the fine root biomass of P. tabulaeformis forest was significantly higher than that of the other three vegetation types. The fine root biomass of the P. crassifolia forests with different ages was 70 a > 100 a > 50 a, and there were no significant differences in the live fine root biomass ratio and dead fine root biomass ratio among the three P. crassifolia forests. The soil water content in the 0-40 cm soil layer of the four vegetation types was P. crassifolia forest > P. tabulaeformis forest > deciduous shrubs > desert grassland, while the soil bulk density followed an opposite pattern, and was significantly negatively correlated with the fine root biomass.
