Early growth, biomass allocation, and nutrient stoichiometry of Pinus pseudostrobus seedlings grown in commercial and locally available substrate mixtures

Seedling quality is a key determinant of reforestation success, yet the use of peat moss ( Sphagnum sp.) as the dominant substrate component imposes economic and logistical barriers for community nurseries in developing countries. We evaluated the early growth, biomass allocation...
