dc.description.abstractIn a series of greenhouse bioassays, tree seedling growth and root-tip development were compared among soils from two areas that had been clearcut and site prepared 16 years earlier and adjacent, undisturbed forest. Seedlings grown in soil from logged areas were shorter and had fewer root tips than those grown in undisturbed forest soil; however, effects on seedling weights were not consistent among species or experimental series. Fertilizing with nitrogen eliminated size differences due to soil source. In Douglas-fir [Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco], the only species tested in sterilized soils, sterilization of logged soils resulted in increased seedling size and root-tip formation, whereas sterilization of unlogged soils had either no or a negative effect.en_US
