Özet
Previous studies examining the influence of understory shrubs and light transmittance through the canopy (LT) (%) on seedling establishment of desired species and litter decomposition have reported inconsistent findings. Uncertainty still also remains about the effects of understory junipers (Juniperus oxycedrus L. subsp. oxycedrus) and LT on survival and growth of black pine (Pinus nigra Arnold.) seedlings as well as on litter decomposition across species’ geographical range. Thus, this study aimed to examine the influence of understory junipers and LT on the growth and survival of black pine seedlings. Moreover, how junipers and LT affect litter decomposition was also monitored for eighteen months. Survival and growth of seedlings were most significantly affected by LT and understory junipers. LT and junipers negatively affected the survival of black pine seedlings. LT increased root-collar diameter (RCD …
