Investigations on tree species suitable for the recultivation of degraded land areas in Central Amazonia.

Abstract

In cooperation with the Embrapa Amazonia Ocidental in Manaus (Amazonas, Brasil) and three German projects (ENV 23, ENV 45, ENV 52), in the year 2000 we especially investigated (1) photosynthesis and carbohydrate allocation and (2) the plant-water relationships of the selected tree species. Special emphasis was given to the three species of the family Meliaceae. Comparative experiments have been done for monoculture, polycultures, enrichment cultures, and primary forests.bitstream/item/198164/1/Id-6216-todo.pdfAnnual Report 2000
