Root growth potential and outplanting performance of loblolly pine seedlings raised at two nurseries
… both nurseries, and cold stored until subsequent outplanting; subsamples of outplanted seedlings were used for RGP determinations. Root growth potential varied significantly by family, nursery, and lift date, and first order interactions were significant. Generally, the RGP of Summerville raised …

Needleless shoots and loss of apical dominance in greenhouse-grown loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.)
… in two different greenhouses and subsequently outplanting the seedlings on two contrasting sites. The second examined the effects of pre-planting exposure to 0, 4, or 6 weeks of shortened days followed by 0, 400 or 600 hours of chilling and post-planting supplemental water. Experiment one …

The Use of Native Hawaiian Plants by Landscape Architects in Hawaii
… and maintaining genetic back-up and by outplanting. The Endangered Species Act and Acts 73 and 236 (State Law requiring the use of native Hawaiian plants in State funded projects) were created to protect rare and common native plants and increase the populations and public awareness of …

A Regional Assessment of Coral Restoration within the Western Atlantic with a Case Study of Barbados
… initiative in Barbados succeeding the outplanting of ex situ grown coral micro-fragments and their further development on the local coral reefs. The meta-analysis showed increased survival rate in fragments outplanted following a nursery phase, which is coherent with the findings of the …

Resolving the nature and variability of the cost-effectiveness of tourism-led coral replanting on the Great Barrier Reef
… whether ‘in-kind’ costs, restoration activity (outplanting only vs. costs encompassing planning, training, coral nursery maintenance, monitoring), site-based survivorship, or a combination of these factors, were considered. Collectively, these findings illustrate the complexities of …

Mechanized tree planting in Finland and improving its productivity
… mechanized planting chain from the nursery to outplanting is important to minimize total cost. In summary, for mechanized planting to be effective the following criteria must be satisfied: machine reliability; highly-skilled machine operator; suitable worksite; seedling quality, availability, …

Pisolithus Tinctorius Mycobiont Inoculations as a Factor in Performance of Containerized and Bare-Root Shortleaf Pine Seedlings on Lignite Minesoils in Panola County, Texas
… following the first growing season after outplanting on minesoils at the Martin Lake lignite strip-mine in Panola County, Texas. Inoculation treatments of bare-root seedlings with P. tinctorius basidiospores and vegetative mycelia at time of planting had no significant effect on survival …

Performance and environmental impacts of biocontainers in horticultural crop production systems
… limiting transplant stress during installation. Outplanting trials showed aboveground plant growth differed by container in two of the three species tested (cleome and lantana). In these species, the conventional plastic control (removed at planting) was always in the top statistical grouping. …

Root growth potential and bud dormancy of three northern pines with emphasis on eastern white pine
… patterns of shoot activity. Results of a field outplanting study show that RGP does show promise as a measure of 2-0 eastern white pine seedling quality. The predictive ability of RGP was increased on non-irrigated versus irrigated seedlings. A comparison of greenhouse versus growthroorn RGP …

Testing assisted gene flow in restoration of winterfat, Krascheninnikovia lanata, a Great Basin desert shrub
… differed in size among populations before outplanting, with southern populations tending to be larger. Regardless of source, larger outplanted seedlings had a higher probability of surviving the first growing season, and size, rather than population of origin, best predicted survival. …

Restoring Abandoned Agricultural Lands in Puget Lowland Prairies: A New Approach
… and reproduction of C. levisecta in a replicated outplanting study with two potential host species. Finally, I tested a novel approach we call "Staged-Scale Restoration" (SSR) that rigorously explored multiple habitat treatments within an adaptive management framework. I implemented SSR by …

Development of a Laboratory Protocol for the Micropropagation of Monterey Pines (<i>Pinus Radiata</i>), Año Nuevo Stand
… These genetic clones will be used for outplanting in places outside the native stands for ornamental and plantation purposes. This project analyzes the results of ten trials with varied parameters and bases the final protocol on the parameters used in the trial that induces the growth …
