Soil aeration and growth of forest trees (review article)

Many forest trees exhibit reduced growth or are killed when the soil is low in oxygen. Anaerobic soil conditions are associated with flooding or compaction of soil but also occur commonly in soils of heavy texture. Reductions in height growth, leaf growth, cambial growth and reproductive growth of trees growing on poorly aerated soils are well documented. The amount of growth reduction varies widely among species and duration of anaerobic soil conditions during the growing season. Inhibition of growth is preceded by changes in physiological processes, including food, water, hormone, and mineral relations. Some species can adapt to soil anaerobiosis by (1) producing hypertrophied lenticels which assist in aeration of the stem and release of toxic compounds, and (2) growing new roots to replace loss of original roots under anaerobic conditions. The replacement roots assist in absorption of water and mineral nutrients and in oxidizing the rhizosphere and detoxifying soil toxins. Ethylene, together with other compounds, appears to play an important causal role in morphological adaptations to soil anaerobiosis. Some forest trees can also adapt metabolically to poor soil aeration.     

Allocation of mass in trees subject to nitrogen and magnesium limitation

It has previously been shown that lack of magnesium, potassium or manganese depresses allocation of new mass to roots in trees, and that these elements often occur in low amounts in declining forest stands. A model for tree growth and nutrient uptake was used to examine the effect of allocation pattern of new plant mass on growth and development in soils with low nutrient concentrations. Growth parameters and empirical allocation functions from steady-state experiments with birch (Betula pendula Roth.) and Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.) limited by N or Mg were used in the simulations. The simulation results show that plant nutrient concentration is sensitive to decreases in soil Mg concentration and is not counteracted by an increased allocation of plant mass to roots. A 50% reduction in the optimal soil Mg concentration decreased the plant Mg concentration to the threshold of survival, whereas a 50% reduction of soil N had much less effect. Birch was more sensitive to low soil Mg concentration than Norway spruce. We conclude that, in the discussion of forest decline, it may be important to consider the decreased allocation of mass to roots when Mg (or K or Mn) is in short supply.

Nitrogen nutrient mechanism in secondary succession process of the mixed broad-leaved/Korean pine (Pinus koraiensis) forest

Chemical and biochemical analysis methods were used to monitor the variations of nitrogen nutrient among the dominance trees species in secondary succession process of the mixed broad -leaved/Korean pine forest on Changbai Mountains, Northeast China. Amounts of total nitrogen, ammonium and NRA in soils of virgin broad-leaved/Korean pine forest which is in climax were higher than those ofsecondary birch forests those are in succession stage. The amount of nitrate was in the other hand. In climax, dominance trees species are tolerant mesophytic trees such asPinus Koraiensis, Tilia amurensis, Acer mono and alsoFraxinus mandshurica, they are all ammonium + nitrate adapted species, but they show a preference for the ammonium rather than those of the pioneer trees species in secondary birch forest, such asPopulus davidiava andBetula platyphylla. Because they have more ammonium in their leaves and roots, especiallyPinus koraiensis. Populus davidvana andBetula platyphlla are intolerant trees, amounts of nitrate and total nitrogen is higher in their leaves and roots and also NRA in their leaves, so they preference for the nitrate rather than the others. In secondary birch forest, the regeneration trees species adapt their nitrogen nutrient to the variation of nitrogen nutrient situation in soil, finally they could survival well and the secondary birch forest would succession to climax. In climax, dominance trees species adapt their Nitrogen nutrient to the situation in soil and there are not strong competition in nitrogen nutrient among them, so they can coexist well and keep the climax as stable vegetation.     

Increased nitrogen-use efficiency of a short-rotation poplar plantation in elevated CO(2) concentration

We estimated nitrogen (N) use by trees of three poplar species exposed for 3 years to free air CO(2) enrichment (FACE) and determined whether the CO(2) treatment affected the future N availability of the plantation. Trees were harvested at the end of the first 3-year rotation and N concentration and content of woody tissues determined. Nitrogen uptake of fine roots and litter was measured throughout the first crop rotation. The results were related to previously published variations in soil N content during the same period. We estimated retranslocation from green leaves and processes determining N mobilization and immobilization, such as mineralization and nitrification, and N immobilization in litter and microbial biomass. In all species, elevated CO(2) concentration ([CO(2)]) significantly increased nitrogen-use efficiency (NUE; net primary productivity per unit of annual N uptake), decreased N concentration in most plant tissues, but did not significantly change cumulative N uptake by trees over the rotation. Total soil N was depleted more in elevated [CO(2)] than in ambient [CO(2)], although not significantly for all soil layers. The effect of elevated [CO(2)] was usually similar for all species, although differences among species were sometimes significant. During the first 3-year rotation, productivity of the plantation remained high in the elevated [CO(2)] treatment. However, we observed a potential reduction in N availability in response to elevated [CO(2)].

The North American long-term soil productivity experiment: Findings from the first decade of research

First decade findings on the impacts of organic matter removal and soil compaction are reported for the 26 oldest installations in the nation-wide network of long-term soil productivity sites. Complete removal of surface organic matter led to declines in soil C concentration to 20 cm depth and to reduced nutrient availability. The effect is attributed mainly to the loss of the forest floor. Soil C storage seemed undiminished, but could be explained by bulk density changes following disturbance and to decomposition inputs of organic C from roots remaining from the harvested forest. Biomass removal during harvesting had no influence on forest growth through 10 years. Soil compaction effects depended upon initial bulk density. Soils with densities greater than 1.4 Mg m⁻³ resisted compaction. Density recovery was slow, particularly on soils with frigid temperature regimes. Forest productivity response to soil compaction depended both on soil texture and the degree of understory competition. Production declined on compacted clay soils, increased on sands, and generally was unaffected if an understory was absent.

Carbon budget of Pinus sylvestris saplings after four years of exposure to elevated atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration

To study the responses of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.), a commercially important tree species in Europe, to future increases in atmospheric CO2 concentration ([CO2]), we grew saplings for 4 years in the ground in open-top chambers in ambient or ambient + 400 micromol mol(-1) CO2, without supplemental addition of nutrients and water. Carbon (C) budgets were developed for trees in both CO2 treatments based on productivity and biomass data obtained from destructive harvests at the end of the third and fourth years of treatment, and simulations of annual gross photosynthesis (P(tot)) and maintenance respiration by the model MAESTRA. Simulated P(tot) was enhanced by elevated [CO2], despite significant down-regulation of photosynthetic capacity. The subsequent increase in C uptake was allocated primarily to tissues with limited longevity (needles and fine roots), which explains why the measured annual increment in woody biomass did not differ between CO2 treatments. Thus, our results suggest that accelerated stem growth only occurs in the first 2 years in the presence of elevated [CO2] and that forest rotations will not be shortened significantly in response to increasing [CO2]. In elevated [CO2], a higher proportion of available C was allocated below ground, resulting in altered biomass distribution patterns. In trees of equal size, measured ratios of fine root/needle biomass and belowground/aboveground biomass were almost twice as large in the elevated [CO2] treatment. Although there are uncertainties in scaling from saplings to mature canopies, the data indicate that, in nutrient-limited Scots pine forests, elevated [CO2] is unlikely to accelerate tree growth significantly, but is likely to increase C inputs to soil.     

The Incidence of Root-Surface Fungi on Naturally Regenerated Picea sitchensis Seedlings in Southeast Alaska

The root-surface fungi were examined from naturally regeneratedSitka spruce obtained from recently exposed glacial outwashand mature upland soils where spruce had grown alone and inmixture with alder. Roots from the poorest trees on least fertilesoil had a high incidence of Mortierella and few other fungibut as growth and soils improved the numbers and genera of otherfungi increased The same genera occurred on roots from glacialdrift and upland soils and were the same as those found on intensivelygrown seedlings from acid heathland soil at Wareham forest nurseryin Dorest, England.
