Response of Eucalypt species to soil moisture stress in acid soil [in Bangladesh]

1994

Rahman, S. | Field, J.B.

The soil moisture stress significantly affected the growth of the four selected eucalypt species. In case of Eucalyptus citriodora the growth improved as the soil moisture content increased up to 53% of field capacity. In case of other species the growth improved up to 67% of field capacity. The root growth was adversely affected with an increase in soil moisture content and therefore there was a decline in the root/shoot ratio. The overall growth was very poor in this highly acid and low fertility level soil.
