Promoting regeneration of native trees, like Quercus spp., is a priority for land managers given the ecological and economic importance oak woodlands. Although direct seeding may promote recruitment effectiveness be greatly reduced in environments where activity granivorous rodents high. Importantly, highest restoration most desired, such as habitats invaded by non‐native woody shrubs. Implementing chemical deterrents to granivory should success; yet it essential understand if those are effective challenging situations (e.g. areas with dense invasive shrub cover). Moreover, important determine whether chemicals that deter have undesired effects on beneficial interactions, animal‐mediated seed dispersal. We used multi‐field site experiments shrub‐invaded shrub‐cleared forest plots compare removal dispersal rubra acorns coats treated pepper‐based capsaicin extract versus control solutions (i.e. water ethanol). Seed was quantified 37 days, survival were relocating nail‐tagged after 8 weeks. found capsaicin‐treated seeds had significantly higher probability compared solutions; presence Rhamnus cathartica increased post‐dispersal consumption regardless seed‐coat treatment; did not affect acorn distance; concentration coatings declined over time field.

This study examined the bioproductivity of two poplar genotypes propagated by single-tree stem cuttings. The experiment compared variants using cuttings different lengths (10–22 cm) and containers with volumes from 1 to 3 L. It was found that best growth performance seedlings in height according traditional container technology (70.6 ± 5.5–111.5 5.0 observed intersectional hybrid ‘E.s.-38’ (genotype 1). predominance genotype factor over rooting established. fast-growing 1, E.s.-38, had higher productivity plant indices, suggesting it as a variety can allow for standard planting material one season. For length 10–14 cm when volume increased L, which could increase number mother 2–3 times. revealed correlations between seedling diameter increment, well analysis proportions organs, showed biological features depended on poplars. natural type G2 characterized prevalence root system other organs; case short cuttings, proportion leaves plants enhance photosynthesis ensure rhizogenesis.
