Other claims from this paper (11)
- Intervention effect Drought hardening lowered leaf:root ratio through lower leaf mass.
- Intervention effect Drought hardening increased seedling drought tolerance.
- Intervention effect Drought hardening increased survival from 74% to 93% in Hiko-V-120 containers.
- Intervention effect JFA-150 containers lowered leaf:root ratio through higher root mass.
- Intervention effect JFA-150 containers combined with drought hardening achieved 97% survival.
- Intervention effect Antitranspirant treatment increased survival to over 90%.
- Intervention effect Topping did not increase survival, possibly due to weed competition.
- Intervention effect High-potassium fertilization did not affect seedling traits or survival.
- Recommendation The authors recommend adequate container cell volume and density for nursery root growth.
- Recommendation The authors recommend withholding irrigation for two months before planting.
- Recommendation The authors recommend antitranspirant at planting for higher survival, at a cost.
