Tree row spacing affected agronomic and economic performance of Eucalyptus-based agroforestry in Andhra Pradesh, Southern India (2010, background): “Unlike the seedlings, the clonal plants of eucalyptus have 53% of fine roots concentrated in 0–25 cm surface soil layer (Bouillet et al. 2002), which may limit their ability to extract deep soil water.”
Integrating genetic and silvicultural strategies to minimize abiotic and biotic constraints in Brazilian eucalypt plantations (2013, background): “Increased nutrient uptake also affects partitioning in eucalypt stands by increasing allocation to foliage in detriment of roots, reducing the root: shoot ratio (Bouillet et al., 2002; Mello et al., 2007; Laclau et al., 2010a,b).”
