Effects of experimental treatments on seedling dry mass increment after outplanting.

<p>The interactions of nursery fertilization (Low and High) and excision treatments (Nil, Slight, Intermediate, and Extreme) on net increment of stem dry mass (A), root dry mass (B) and total dry mass (C) (mean ± SE) of <i>Quercus variabilis</i> container seedlings were determined. Net increment is for nursery and outplanting seasons i.e. <i>Y</i>_<i>2</i><i>-Y</i>_<i>0</i>. Bars marked with different letters differ statistically according to Duncan`s test α = 0.05.
