Zheke Zhong Journal of Zhejiang University Agriculture and Life Sciences 2012
Other claims from this paper (11)
- Observation Wine bamboo had higher biomass than D. oldhami.
- Observation Wine bamboo had higher resource utilization efficiency than D. oldhami.
- Observation The optimal nitrogen fertilizer level for wine bamboo was about N 120.
- Observation The optimal nitrogen fertilizer level for D. oldhami was N 80.
- Mechanism Both bamboos optimized light utilization by elevating SLA, extending crowns, increasing leaf area and height.
- Association Relative growth rate and root radius of wine bamboo and D. oldhami increased with nitrogen level.
- Intervention effect N 160 impaired optimal growth, although it performed better than N 40 and control.
- Intervention effect Medium nitrogen supply improved P max, LSP and LCP.
- Intervention effect Medium nitrogen supply improved R d and φAQY.
- Observation At N 40, plasticity responses were not significant except root and φAQY.
- Association Higher biomass and SLA suggested wine bamboo could adapt and propagate better in mid-high Southwest China mountains.
