Growth and Water Relations of Kentucky Coffee Tree in Protective Shelters During Establishment
Growth and water relations of Kentucky coffee tree [Gymnocladus dioica (L.) K. Koch] whips in translucent tubelike shelters were investigated. In a container study, 1.2m-high shelters were placed over whips following transplanting, then diurnal microclimate, water relations, and water use were measured. Shelter air temperature and vapor pressure were substantially higher, and solar radiation wa...
متن کاملCompetition between tree seedlings and herbaceous vegetation] support for a theory of resource supply and demand
0 We measured competition intensity "CI# between herbaceous vegetation and tree seedlings "Quercus macrocarpa and Q[ ellipsoidalis# along an experimental moistureÐ light gradient[ Contrasting theories were tested by comparing variation in competition intensity to changes in neighbour biomass and resource supply and demand[ 1 CI based on survival was inversely correlated with net soil water supp...
متن کاملTree Transplanting and Establishment
Many aspects of transplanting change over time. Modern equipment has made it possible to transplant larger trees with "soil balls" more affordably. Containerized production has grown in popularity for many reasons, including the ability to plant in any season. One thing remains the same-plants must quickly establish or reestablish a normal, spreading root system on the new site to minimize susc...
متن کاملeffect of forest road on herbaceous diversity and tree regeneration
road construction is one of the effective factors for ecological changes which affects diversity and species composition in forest roads edges. this research was performed in kheirud forest to evaluate herbaceous diversity and tree regeneration establishment in different distances from road edge. for this purpose, we sampled herbaceous and tree species regeneration in 0,5,10,25, 50 and 100 m di...
متن کاملThe independent and interactive effects of tree-tree establishment competition and fire on savanna structure and dynamics.
Savanna ecosystems are widespread and economically important and harbor considerable biodiversity. Despite extensive study, the mechanisms regulating savanna tree populations are not well understood. Recent empirical work suggests that both tree-tree competition and fire are key factors in semiarid to mesic savannas, but the potential for competition to structure savannas, particularly in inter...
