Increase in size and nitrogen concentration enhances seedling survival in Mediterranean plantations. Insights from an ecophysiological conceptual model of plant survival (2012, methodology): “Similarly, large P. halepensis had greater new root mass at the beginning of the dry period than small seedlings, and this difference was more pronounced in the presence rather than in the absence of weeds (Cuesta et al. 2010b).”
