Nitrogen fixation rate of Acacia mangium Wild at mid rotation in Brazil is higher in mixed plantations with Eucalyptus grandis Hill ex Maiden than in monocultures
Résumé
Key message Inter-specific interactions with eucalypts in mixed plantations increased N2 fixation rate of acacia trees compared to monocultures. N2 fixation was higher during the wet summer than during the dry winter both in acacia monocultures and in mixed plantations.
