Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation Drained soil induced rapid root growth up to >1 cm day −1 and a deep root system.
- Observation In waterlogged soil the root system spread more horizontally.
- Association Root density increased with nutrient availability.
- Observation Total shoot length and shoot, root and total biomass differed significantly among water levels and nutrient availabilities.
- Association Relative growth rate increased with water level and nutrient availability.
- Observation Shoot porosity was higher in nutrient rich than nutrient low substrate.
- Association Root porosity increased with water level.
- Observation The species tolerated differing water levels.
