TY - T1 - Ecophysiological responses of two poplar species to intraspecific and interspecific competition under different nitrogen levels SN - / UR - http://hdl.handle.net/10138/323972 T3 - A1 - Li, Yan; Kang, Jieyu; Li, Zhijun; Korpelainen, Helena; Li, Chunyang A2 - PB - Y1 - 2020 LA - eng AB - Aims Populus deltoides and P. euramericana are widely used in China as major forestry species. At present, little is known about their responses to nitrogen (N) deficiency when grown in monocultures or mixed plantations. The aim of this investigation was to analyze the growth, and morphological and physiological responses of P. deltoides and P. euramericana to different N levels under competition conditions. Methods We employed two Populus species (P. deltoides and P. euramericana) to discover h...
