Abstract
- Determines the Michaelis?Menten kinetic parameters for white spruce (Picea glauca (Moench) Voss) and jack pine (Pinus banksiana Lamb.) seedlings, and three competitive common boreal forest early successional species: aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.), fireweed (Epilobium angustifolium L.), and cala magrostis (Calamagrostis canadensis (Michx.) Beauv.). Uptake kinetics that were measured in hydroponic cultures and expressed as maximum uptake and ion affinity; Suggestion that silviculture practices that specifically reduce establishment of this grass should benefit the growth of planted seedlings.
