✦ Synopsis


Application.

Cutting the tap root of oak seedlings had little effect on shoot growth but markedly changed the structure of the root system. Results suggest that the use of undercutting to stimulate the production of a good fibrous root system can begin at the end of the first flush of growth after sowing the acorn.
