Summary: | The experiment on four exotic alder including Alnus glutinosa, A. rubra, A. nitida and A. incana growing under four different concentrations of nitrogen was conducted in a greenhouse in order to research the alder' s responses under different nitrogen concentrations and stresses. The results showed that the growing parameters of alder on the survival percent of transplanting, plant height, ground diameter, biomass, root-top ratio, relative content of chlorophyll (SPAD) and rooting parameters (length, superficial area, volume and tips of root) were significant among different materials and different nitrogen concentrations, the different level of nitrogen significantly affected the growth of alder. Specifically, the survival percent of transplanting went down with the going up of nitrogen concentration, and the plant height, ground diameter, relative content of chlorophyll and rooting parameters went up when nitrogen varied from 0 to 1/2 normal nitrogen, yet went down at one or two times of normal nitrogen (E. |
