The productivity and biomass allocation strategies of two early successional (ES) and two
late successional (LS) tropical tree species were compared and related to their successional …

Speed of stand establishment and rate of stem biomass production after canopy closure are
two important criteria in the selection of species in the expanding field of tropical …

The seedling stage is generally the most important bottleneck for the successful
regeneration of trees in forests. The traits of seedlings, particularly biomass allocation and …

Coppice stands of fast-growing tropical trees may differ in productivity and biomass
allocation compared with original planted stands, due to changes in stand dynamics and …

We investigated biomass allocation and root architecture of eight tropical species with
different successional status, as classified from the literature, along a size gradient up to 5 m …

We measured leaf distribution, crown shape, and biomass allocation patterns in open-grown
saplings of three tree species (Cedrela odorata, Cordia alliodora, and Hyeronima …

Abstract Trees of Casuarina equisetifolia, Albizia procera, Eucalyptus robusta, and two
varieties of Leucaena leucocephala (an exotic and a native) were grown for maximum …

Data on stemwood biomass and mean annual biomass increment (MABI) for seven tropical
tree plantation species were synthesized from the literature to evaluate species adaptibility …

Forest dynamics is largely affected by the recruitment of trees. Despite several investigations
on forest recruitment biomass (FRB), it is still not well explored how tree species diversity …

Aims Despite the growing interest in the topic of functional ecology, there are still forest
regions that have not been examined, as most work has been done in the tropics …
