Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Root pruning did not significantly affect height and root collar diameter growth after 80 days.
- Intervention effect Non-root-pruned seedlings had higher root volume and root dry mass.
- Intervention effect Root-pruned seedlings had higher shoot height, root:shoot ratio and seedling quality index.
- Intervention effect Root pruning influenced attainment of moderate root growth potential.
- Association Root growth potential correlated positively with root dry mass, sturdiness quotient and seedling quality index.
- Recommendation The authors concluded that root pruning increases kamagong planting-stock quality.
