In recent years, drought-induced tree mortality has occurred in the oak forests of Zagros Mountains (western Iran). The impacts climate change induced by drought stress have been most acutely experienced two populations Persian oaks (Quercus brantii Lindl) grown western provinces (Ilam and Lorestan) region. We surveyed growth, physiological, biochemical responses one-year-old seedlings from Melasyah (Ilam) Chegeni (Lorestan) provenances, which were subjected to three watering regimes (100%,...
ABSTRACT The objective of the present study was to evaluate how altitudinal gradients shape composition soil bacterial and fungal communities, humus forms properties across six altitude levels in Hyrcanian forests. Soil microbiomes were characterized by sequencing amplicons selected molecular markers. chemistry plant mycorrhizal type two dominant factors explaining variations diversity, respectively. lowest level had more favorable conditions for formation mull exhibited higher N Ca...
The diverse chemical, biological, and microbial properties of litter organic matter (OM) in forest soil along an altitudinal gradient are potentially important for nutrient cycling. In the present study, we sought to evaluate microbial, enzymatic characteristics at four altitude levels (0, 500, 1,000, 1,500 m) northern Iran characterize cycling soils. results showed that carbon (C) nitrogen (N) turnover changed with enzyme activity. At lowest mixed no beech trees, higher content N soil, pH...
<ja:p>Concerns about decline in soil fertility and long-term productivity of fast-growing plantations have promoted interest using nitrogen-fixing trees mixed species plantations. Populus deltoides Alnus subcordata were planted five proportions (100P, 67P:33A, 50P:50A, 33P:67A, 100A) Noor, Iran. After 7 years, the effects interactions on tree growth nutrient concentration live senescent leaves properties assessed. Diameter at breast height total individual positively affected by presence...
Humus forms are good indicators of environmental conditions and thus important in forest ecological processes. Altitudinal gradients considered as natural laboratory for evaluating soil processes humus form distribution. The objective this study was to evaluate the macromorphology along an altitudinal gradient (0-2000 m a.s.l.) covered with plain forest, mixed pure forests forest-grassland ecotone, Alborz Mountains northern Iran. In total, 225 profiles were evaluated. Forest stand variables...
In the course of investigations in Hyrcanian region northern Iran, especially epiphyte vegetation Elburz Mountains south city Nowshahr (36°39′N, 51°30′E), 18 moss species that have not been reported from country earlier were found. Several new finds represent major range extensions, or fill gaps known distributions species, for example, Lescuraea saviana (DeNot.) E.Lawton, Rhynchostegium rotundifolium (Brid.) Schimp., and Schwetschkeopsis fabronia (Schwägr.) Broth. addition, presence both...
