The ecological resilience of abandoned pastures has important implications for the potential of passive restoration in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest, especially in the face of the ambitious restoration targets for this biodiversity hotspot. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the influence of past land-use on natural regeneration in two secondary forests that established on abandoned pas...... hiện toàn bộ
Differences in growth and mineral nutrition of seedlings produced from ten white spruce seed orchardsSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 42 - Trang 195-214 - 2011

To meet the needs for improved spruce seeds in the province of Quebec, Canada, 17 first-generation white spruce seed orchards (SO) were established. These SOs are located in different bioclimatic domains and contain seed trees originating from geographically and genetically distinct sources. To evaluate the influence of SO on seedling growth and morphology, seedlings produced with seeds originatin...... hiện toàn bộ
The impact of light quality and quantity on root-to-shoot ratio and root carbon reserves in aspen seedling stockSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 46 - Trang 527-545 - 2015
J. W. G. Kelly, S. M. Landhäusser, P. S. Chow
The available evidence suggests that for trembling aspen (Populus tremuloides) seedlings, a high root-to-shoot ratio (R:S) and high root total non-structural carbohydrate (NSC) concentration are the best predictors of future growth and outplanting success in harsh reclamation environments. To facilitate more consistent production of aspen seedlings with these characteristics requires the identific...... hiện toàn bộ
Site preparation: Water relations and growth of newly planted jack pine and white spruceSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 3 - Trang 99-123 - 1989
Steven C. Grossnickle, Jukka Heikurinen
Bareroot jack pine (Pinus banksiana Lamb.) and white spruce (Picea glauca (Moench) Voss) were planted near Elliot Lake, Ontario, on a boreal reforestation site. Site preparation treatments were mixed, mineral and undisturbed (i.e., control) soil. Seedling water relations and growth were examined during the first field season. During the first 28 days after planting, jack pine base (i.e., predawn) ...... hiện toàn bộ
Full-diallel-based analysis of genetic parameters for growth traits in Japanese larch (Larix kaempferi)Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 51 Số 2 - Trang 261-271 - 2020
Dong, Leiming, Xie, Yunhui, Sun, Xiaomei
Genetic parameters were estimated for tree height (H), diameter at breast height (DBH), and volume from a progeny trial conducted in Japanese larch (Larix kaempferi) in Liaoning, China. A 12 × 12 full-diallel mating design with selfing was adopted, and data were collected in 2005 and 2014 at 20 and 29 years after planting. Based on an analysis of 55 of 144 potential crosses, general combining...... hiện toàn bộ
Eucalyptus agroforestry system for small farms: 2-year experiment with rice and beans in Minas Gerais, BrazilSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 29 - Trang 261-272 - 2005
Eliane Ceccon
In Minas Gerais, Brazil, Eucalyptus plantation agroforestry techniques for small farms appear to be an adequate alternative to small-scale plantations, and by integrating timber and food production, they can meet local demands for aliment and wood. Intercropping of Eucalyptus camaldulensis with rice and beans was studied to compare yields of intercropping and monocultures over 2 years. In the firs...... hiện toàn bộ
Light- and nutrient-related relationships in mixed plantations of Eucalyptus and a high diversity of native tree speciesSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 52 - Trang 807-828 - 2021
Nino Tavares Amazonas, David I. Forrester, Carina Camargo Silva, Danilo Roberti Alves de Almeida, Rafael Silva Oliveira, Ricardo Ribeiro Rodrigues, Pedro H. S. Brancalion
Mixed plantations composed of Eucalyptus intercropped with a high diversity of native tree species are a promising option for combining biodiversity recovery with wood production during forest landscape restoration. The viability of this approach relies not only on its potential to offset implementation costs but also on the capacity of native trees to perform well when intercropped with Eucalyptu...... hiện toàn bộ
