Characterizing fertility targets and multi-element interactions in nursery culture of Quercus rubra seedlings
We quantified and characterized fertility targets for nursery culture of container northern red oak (Quercus rubra L.) seedlings. Plants were supplied with a 15N-5P2O5-15K2O fertilizer at eight rates ranging from 0–150 mg N plant–1 and reared for 18 wk in a greenhouse. Plant growth and nutritional response to increased fertilization followed a curvilinear pattern depicting phases that ranged fr...
متن کاملDrought tolerance and transplanting performance of holm oak (Quercus ilex) seedlings after drought hardening in the nursery.
Drought stress is the main cause of mortality of holm oak (Quercus ilex L.) seedlings in forest plantations. We therefore assessed if drought hardening, applied in the nursery at the end of the growing season, enhanced the drought tolerance and transplanting performance of holm oak seedlings. Seedlings were subjected to three drought hardening intensities (low, moderate and severe) for 2.5 and ...
متن کاملStock Quality of Black Walnut (Juglans Nigra) Seedlings as Affected by Half-Sib Seed Source and Nursery Sowing Density
Morphological quality of black walnut (Juglans nigra L.) seedlings largely dictates their capacity to establish well in plantations and their performance potential for use as rootstocks in grafting. Larger seedlings and rootstocks, attained from propagation at relatively low nursery sowing densities, have comparatively more expansive root systems for exploitation of soil resources and greater n...
متن کاملPhotosynthesis and the Xanthophyll Cycle-mediated Photoprotection in Leaves of Quercus Rubra and Q. Alba Seedlings of Different Light Environments
Two and three years after the outplanting of 1-O northern red oak (Quercus rubra, NRO) and white oak (Q. ulba, WO) nursery stocks, the highest net photosynthetic rates (A-) were observed from seedlings growing on a clearcut site followed by those under a pine stand. Both NRO and WO seedlings under a hardwood stand had A, less than 10% of the full sun seedling A,,. Oaks grown under hardwoods inc...
متن کاملGrowth, gas exchange, and root respiration of Quercus rubra seedlings exposed to low root zone temperatures in solution culture
Spring planting is standard operational practice in the Central Hardwood Region, though little is known about potential impacts of low root temperature (RT) common during spring on establishment success of temperate deciduous forest tree species. The effects of low RT on growth, gas exchange, and root respiration following winter dormancy were studied in 1-year-old northern red oak (Quercus rub...
