Physiological and nutritional changes in nitrogen fixing trees associated with autumnal senescence and chilling
… (Platanus occidentalis L.) and honey locust (Gleditsia triacanthos L.), was studied during the autumns of 1987 and 1988 on two physically and nutritionally distinct sites in central Illinois, USA. The dinitrogen fixing species, actinorhizal (Frankia-nodulated) autumn olive and leguminous black …
