For sustainable use and suitable management of larch plantations, we must clarify the
ecophysiological responses of larch species to environmental changes. The physical …

We studied the colonization of ectomycorrhizal fungi and species abundance of a hybrid
larch (F 1) under elevated CO 2 and O 3. Two-year-old seedlings were planted in an Open …

Larch species are widely distributed in the northern hemisphere where permafrost and
seasonal frozen soil exist. This species with heterophyllous shoots has been intensively …

The increase of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) and tropospheric ozone (O3)
concentrations has affected forest ecosystems both above and below ground. A high dose of …

We examined the effects of elevated CO2 (eCO2) on the growth and photosynthetic
responses of deciduous trees using a Free Air CO2 Enrichment (FACE). In the FACE …

With the rapid industrial development and modern agricultural practices, increasing nitrogen
(N) deposition can cause nutrient imbalance in immature volcanic ash soil commonly found …

A recently developed hybrid larch F 1 (F 1: Larix gmelinii var. japonica× L. kaempferi) is
being planted widely in re-and afforestation projects in northeast Asia. Nitrogen (N) …

Introduction As an important coniferous tree in northeast China, Pinus koraiensis not only
maintains the stability of the forest ecosystem at high latitudes but also plays a crucial role in …

Regeneration success of forests is strongly dependent on symbiotic microorganisms, that is,
arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) and ectomycorrhiza (ECM). In the northeastern part of Asia …

Recently, rapid economic growth, industrialization and urbanization have caused a series of
environmental pollutions mainly due to tremendous energy consumption. Subsequent …
