Abstract: The introduction of broadleaf species into Cunninghamia lanceolata monoculture plantations could be a sustainable silvicultural practice for restoring soil fertility. We hypothesize that the addition of Phoebe bournei tree species will change soil physicochemical factors… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Leaf area (LA) and leaf mass (LM) are key parameters for predicting plant growth, but empirical models for measuring LA and LM at the leaf scale in different broadleaf species of saplings and adult… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Although the area of monospecific plantations in China ranks first in the world, these plantations possess poor disease resistance, low quality, and low ecological benefit. Planting broadleaf seedlings into the understory of monospecific coniferous… read more here.
