Other claims from this paper (6)
- Association Initial seedling height and diameter were equally related to field performance.
- Method / resource Initial height and diameter forecast growth better than survival.
- Association The relation of initial morphology to survival varied by species.
- Association Seedling growth correlated positively with size at planting in every species tested.
- Observation Larger seedlings retained a size advantage.
- Recommendation Both initial height and diameter should be considered for operational seedling quality testing.
