Loss of soils and the consequent damage at local and regional scales is one of the most
severe and extensive environmental problems. When the soil structure, and even the soil …

Nutrient availability, particularly phosphorus (P), and water are major factors limiting tree
growth in plantations of maritime pine (Pinus pinaster) in southwestern France. Applied …

A field experiment was carried out to evaluate the growth response of Pinus halepensis
seedlings inoculated with Pisolithus arhizus and planted in a terraced rangeland amended …
