Nursery fertilisation affects the frost-tolerance and plant quality of Eucalyptus globulus Labill. cuttings

Abstract: -Eucalyptus globulus is widely used in productive exotic plantations but the expansion of these plantations is limited by low temperatures, as its cold hardening capacity is limited (0.5 to 3.0 • C). It is not well understood how nursery fertilisation affects the field performance of plants. This led us to study the effect of three mineral nutrients (N, P and K) on both plant quality and frost tolerance. The experiment comprised eight growth treatments in which a high dose (H-) or a low dose (L-) of each nutri… Show more

“…Without additional nutrient supply in the late-season, however, concentration of N, P, and K declined in Picea mariana seedlings (Boivin et al 2002(Boivin et al , 2004. Hence, fall fertilization is considered necessary to avert nutrient dilution effects for most evergreen tree species (Duryea 1990, Irwin et al 1998, Boivin et al 2002, Rikala et al 2004, Fernández et al 2007, Islam et al 2009, Heiskanen et al 2009). However, in our Olga Bay larch seedlings, N concentrations in roots and shoots increased by more than 40% from September 15 to October 16 (c.f .…”
