Other claims from this paper (11)

Intervention effect Nitrogen fertilizer markedly increased seed yield in coastal dunes.
Intervention effect Nitrogen fertilizer increased flowering-spike density.
Intervention effect Potassium additions provided little short-term advantage.
Recommendation Rapid-release nitrogen at 50-100 kg ha-1 could produce seed cost-effectively from a smaller dune area or increase seed output.
Intervention effect Slow-release fertilizer improved seedling establishment during the first two seasons on volcanic sandy barrens.
Intervention effect Annual rapid-release fertilizer produced similar tiller density and biomass after four years more economically.
Observation Untreated control seedling populations became extinct over four years.
Intervention effect Severe phosphorus deprivation increased dry-mass allocation to roots and rhizomes.
Intervention effect Potassium deprivation increased dry-mass allocation to above-ground parts.
Intervention effect Fertilizer failed to rejuvenate seed production in moribund late-successional stands.
Intervention effect Where vegetation responded, fertilizer stimulated competing species at the expense of Leymus arenarius.
