A method was devised in which plant roots can be easily and uniformly radiolabelled with 14C for use in soil decomposition studies. The roots were labelled from an exogenous sugar solution for a total period of 48 hours after which root decomposition studies could be performed. The method offers distinct advantages over the existing constant 14C‐CO2 atmosphere labelling method.
