Provenance causes variation on early growth and survival and sun protection on physiological responses of the vulnerable Nothofagus glauca (Phil.) Krasser in a common garden in Central Chile
We assessed outplanting performance of N. glauca in two trials. In Trial 1, provenances from Pre- Andean (Linares, Longaví) and Coastal (Curanipe, Empedrado) origins were planted in a common garden under two sun protection treatments (i.e., black mesh shelter, and kaolin at 6% concentration), and a…
