Leaf Traits Explain the Growth Variation and Nitrogen Response of <i>Eucalyptus urophylla</i> × <i>Eucalyptus grandis</i> and <i>Dalbergia odorifera</i> in Mixed Culture

Leaf Traits Explain the Growth Variation and Nitrogen Response of <i>Eucalyptus urophylla</i> × <i>Eucalyptus grandis</i> and <i>Dalbergia odorifera</i> in Mixed Culture

Mixed cultivation with legumes may alleviate the nitrogen (N) limitation of monoculture <i>Eucalyptus</i>. However, how leaf functional traits respond to N in mixed cultivation with legumes and how they affect tree growth are unclear. Thus, this study investigated the response of leaf fu...
