Partitioning of net primary production in Eucalyptus and Acacia stands and in mixed-species plantations: Two case-studies in contrasting tropical environments
(2013-08-01)
The introduction of nitrogen fixing species (NFS) in fast-growing tree plantations is an alternative option to reduce fertilizer inputs. However, the success of mixed-species plantations depends on the balance between ...
Partitioning of net primary production in Eucalyptus and Acacia stands and in mixed-species plantations: Two case-studies in contrasting tropical environments
(2013-08-01)

Nitrogen fixation rate of Acacia mangium Wild at mid rotation in Brazil is higher in mixed plantations with Eucalyptus grandis Hill ex Maiden than in monocultures
(2018-03-01)
Key message: Inter-specific interactions with eucalypts in mixed plantations increased N2fixation rate of acacia trees compared to monocultures. N2fixation was higher during the wet summer than during the dry winter both ...
Mixed Pyrus pyraster and Sorbus torminalis plantations including companion species enhance high-quality timber production
(Springer, 2020-08-26)
Wild pear (Pyrus pyraster (L.) Burgsd.) (P) and wild service tree (Sorbus torminalis (L.) Crantz) (S) are sporadic European tree species that are valued for their high-quality timber production. Although mixed plantations ...
Wild Cherry tree (Prunus avium L.) growth in pure and mixed plantations in South America
(Elsevier, 2013-10-15)
Seven-year-old pure and mixed-species plantations containing cherry tree (Prunus avium L.) were analyzed at six sites in the central and southern area of Chile. The study examines the growth, pests, diseases, and stem ...
Nutrient supply modulates species interactions belowground: dynamics and traits of fine roots in mixed plantations of Eucalyptus and Acacia mangium
(2021-03-01)
Aims: Belowground interactions are still poorly understood in mixed-species forests. We investigated the effects of soil fertility on belowground processes in mixed planted forests. Methods: The dynamics and traits of ...
Pure and mixed plantations of Persian walnut (Juglans regia L.) for high quality timber production in Chile, South America
(Oxford University Press, 2020-02)
Aims Persian walnut (Juglans regia L.), an interesting forest species for the veneering industry, requires adequate management to produce valuable high-quality logs. Since species associations and management level can ...
Mixed species plantations and their potential role in innovative production systems for forest restoration
(The CGIAR Research Program on Forests, Trees and Agroforestry, Bogor (Indonesia), 2021-12)
Large-scale timber plantations are controversial in many parts of the world for numerous reasons, including direct and indirect land-use changes and associated impacts on a variety of ecosystem goods and services. The use ...
