Growth and Foliar Nutrition of Douglas-Fir Seedlings Provided with Supplemental Polymer-Coated Fertilizer
Polymer-coated fertilizer (PCF) provides a potential means to optimize nutrient delivery for plant uptake, while minimizing leaching. Coating technology varies by manufacturer, which may alter patterns of nutrient release over time among comparable products. Three months following sowing, Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) seedlings were transplanted into containers with Osmocot...
متن کاملAdaptive significance of intermittent shoot growth in Douglas-fir seedlings.
We tested the hypothesis that intermittent (lammas) shoot growth in Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii var menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) seedlings from dry regions of southwest Oregon is adaptively significant. Seedlings from open-pollinated families (160 total) from two inland (dry) and two coastal (wet) sources were grown under either well-watered or intermittent drought conditions (temporary dro...
متن کاملRate of Respiration of Douglas-Fir Seedlings
The rate of photorespiration of Douglas-fir seedlings was measured under different light intensities by: (1) extrapolating the curve for CO., uptake in reilation to atmospheric CO, content to zero CO2, content, and (2) measuring CO, evolution of the plants into a CO2-free airstream. Different results, obtained from these techniques, were lelieved to be caused by 'a severe restriction of the pho...
متن کاملGenetic maladaptation of coastal Douglas-fir seedlings to future climates
Climates are expected to warm considerably over the next century, resulting in expectations that plant populations will not be adapted to future climates. We estimated the risk of maladaptation of current populations of coastal Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii var. menziesii) to future climates as the proportion of nonoverlap between two normal distributions where the means and genetic varian...
متن کاملEvidence for red:far red signaling and photomorphogenic growth response in Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) seedlings.
In a greenhouse experiment, potted coastal Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) seedlings were grown in miniature "Nelder" (Nelder 1962) plots where growing space varied from 265 to 2555 cm(2) per plant. After thirty weeks, mean plant height, crown biomass and branch number increased significantly (P = 0.0141) with decreasing growing space (increasing plant density). Differences i...
