Rafael Villar Montero; Teodoro Marañón; José Luis Quero Pérez; et al. 2008

Other claims from this paper (11)

Association a greater seedling biomass was strongly associated with a bigger acorn mass under deep shade.
Association with increasing light levels the association between seedling and acorn mass became lower and non-significant.
Intervention effect light restriction with a decrease in the relative growth rate (RGR).
Observation the seedlings had lower biomass.
Intervention effect specific leaf area (SLA) and stem mass ratio (SMR) increased under shade.
Intervention effect water limitation was a general decrease of RGR.
Intervention effect the effect of drought was negligible under deep shade conditions.
Observation Seedlings from open microhabitats (with more light) had a greater biomass than seedlings under tree or deep shade microhabitats.
Intervention effect light limitation was an increase of specific leaf area (SLA), an increase in stem mass ratio and stem length.
Observation survival rate of seedlings after the summer drought was greater under trees than in the open habitats.
Recommendation Medium shade appears best suited for Quercus suber regeneration.
