Evidence of UVB differential response in Sophora microphylla from shady and sunny places
The effect of the supplemental UVB radiation in forest species was studied in Sophora microphylla, a native tree that grow at low latitudes in the Central-South of Chile and important by their association with soil bacteria and mycorhizal fungi. Seeds of sun and shade variety growing at different li...
