Other claims from this paper (9)
- Observation Flooding increased relative growth rates of biomass, height and stem basal diameter, especially after recovery.
- Observation Stem had the highest biomass relative growth rate among organs.
- Observation Nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium concentrations were highest during drought.
- Observation Leaves and stems had greater nutrient concentrations and stoichiometries than roots.
- Observation Whole plant stoichiometry correlated positively with biomass relative growth rate.
- Observation Whole plant stoichiometry correlated positively with height relative growth rate.
- Observation Whole plant stoichiometry correlated negatively with stem diameter relative growth rate.
- Observation Biomass relative growth rate correlated positively with stem and leaf stoichiometry.
- Recommendation The authors consider moist soil or periodic short flooding suitable for poplar seedling cultivation.
