Early-stage of invasion by beech bark disease does not necessarily trigger American beech root sucker establishment in hardwood stands

2018-11-01

Abstract excerpt

Two concomitant phenomena currently affect the dynamics of sugar maple-American beech (AB) stands in northeastern North America: beech bark disease (BBD), and increased AB understory density. Many studies suggest a causal link between the two phenomena, i.e., BBD favouring beech regeneration. But this link has yet to be experimentally demonstrated. To address the question, we compared regeneration composition betw...
