Effect of Glomus Spp. on the Growth of Eastern Cottonwood Cuttings
The rapid juvenile growth of eastern cottonwood (Populus deltoides Bartr. ex Marsh.) makes it a desirable hardwood species for revegetation of disturbed sites. In addition, revegetation may be facilitated by improved root growth in response to endomycorrhizal colonization. An experiment was conducted to identify the effect of inoculation with a mix of three Glomus spp. isolates on the root grow...
متن کاملEffects of Fertilizer Nitrogen on Tree Growth, Foliar Nitrogen, and Herbage in Eastern Cottonwood Plantations I
When five rates of nitrogen fertilizer (0 to 672 kg! ha) were tested in two eastern cottonwood (Populus deltoides Bartr. ) plantations 7 and 10 years old in the Mississippi River floodplain , first season volume growth was more than doubled by fertilization . By the end of the third season, the direct effect of fertilization had apparently disappeared although a volume advantage caused by the l...
متن کاملLoss of hydraulic conductivity due to water stress in intact juveniles of Quercus rubra and Populus deltoides.
Despite many studies of the percent loss of hydraulic conductivity in excised branches, there is doubt as to whether cutting stems in air introduces unnatural embolism into the xylem at the cut surface. To address this question, hydraulic conductivity was measured in seedlings of northern red oak (Quercus rubra L.) and rooted scions of eastern cottonwood (Populus deltoides Bartr. ex Marsh.) tha...

متن کاملAn Afforestation System for Restoring Bottomland Hardwood Forests: Biomass Accumulation of Nuttall Oak Seedlings Interplanted Beneath Eastern Cottonwood
Bottomland hardwood forests of the southeastern United States have declined in extent since European settlement. Forest restoration activities over the past decade, however, have driven recent changes in land use through an intensified afforestation effort on former agricultural land. This intense afforestation effort, particularly in the Lower Mississippi Alluvial Valley, has generated a deman...
