Acid resistance of Masson pine (Pinus massoniana Lamb.) families and their root morphology and physiological response to simulated acid deposition
Abstract Pinus massoniana Lamb. is one of the most sensitive species to acid deposition among forest woody plants, but differences in acid resistance among pine families still exist. It is of great significance to study the differences in acid resistance of Masson pine families and to analyze the ph...

Abstract Pinus massoniana Lamb. is one of the most sensitive species to acid deposition among forest woody plants, but differences in acid resistance among pine families still exist. It is of great significance to study the differences in acid resistance of Masson pine families and to analyze the physiological regulation mechanism of their acid resistance.
