Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Treatments strongly affected seedling establishment and survival.
- Observation Shelter and pasture competition had the strongest effects on Nothofagus seedlings.
- Intervention effect Pasture species initially aided seedling emergence through shelter.
- Intervention effect Pasture species negatively affected later seedling survival.
- Observation Most surviving seedlings formed ectomycorrhizae regardless of supplied inoculum.
- Association Ectomycorrhizal colonization was positively related to survival and health.
- Intervention effect Fertilizing had less effect than the other factors.
- Observation Rabbit herbivory results were inconclusive.
- Recommendation Direct seeding in open grasslands is unlikely to produce high Nothofagus establishment.
