In order to understand the distribution and change of stable carbon isotope13C in grassland plants and the effects of soil moisture and temperature on the stable carbon isotope13 C composition (δ13 C), w e measured the δ13 C of shoots and living roots which both had two treatments, 13 C pulse labeling treatment and control treatment, and analyzed the effect of soil moisture content, air temperature and ground temperature on the δ13 C of plants body during the fast-growing stage (July-September) of the Leymus chinensis grassland in Inner Mongolia. The results showed that the δ13C of the living roots was 1-2% higher than the δ13C of the shoots in control treatments, and the δ13C of the shoots in13C pulse labeling treatment was significantly greater than the δ13C of the living roots. The variation trends of the δ13C value of shoots and living roots in labeling and control treatments were both in good consistency with time, which showed that the value of13C in shoots and living roots decreased at first, then increased, and then decreased during the growing season of plants. The δ13 C of the shoots and living roots in control group and living roots in13 C pulse labeling treatment had a linear negative correlation with soil moisture content in the layer of 0-20 cm, but the δ13C of shoots in13C pulse labeling treatment had Quadratic function relation with the soil moisture content in the layer of 0-20 cm, which indicated that the δ13C increased with increasing soil moisture content when it had a low soil moisture content, and the δ13C decreased when there was a high soil moisture content. In13 C pulse labeling treatment and control treatment, there were significant positive correlation between temperature and the δ13C of the shoots and living roots, the δ13C of the shoots and living roots increased with increasing the temperature.
