Competitive interactions between Douglas-fir or ponderosa pine and whiteleaf manzanita

Creator:

White, Diane E.

Abstract:

Juvenile Douglas-fir, ponderosa pine, and whiteleaf manzanita growth in southwest Oregon varied with density of co-developing manzanita and presence of herbaceous cover. Plant xylem pressure potential and stomatal conductance of each species was responsive to competition-induced depletion of soil water. Rates varied among species. The best correlations with growth usually...
