“…Similarly, the success of certain mixed-species combinations in field trials has depended on site factors. For example the facilitative effect of higher N availability appears more likely to increase growth on sites where N is a major limiting resource (Binkley, 1992;Binkley and Green, 1983;DeBell et al, 1987;Khanna, 1997Khanna, , 1998. On sites with low N availability, the N-fixing species Facaltaria moluccana, Alnus rubra and Lupinus arboreus increased the growth of Eucalyptus saligna, Pseudotsuga menziesii and Pinus radiata respectively (Beets and Madgwick, 1988;Binkley, 1983Binkley, , 2003Binkley et al, 1992bBinkley et al, , 2003aDeBell et al, 1987).…”
