Physiological responses of Vaccinium vitis-idaea to high tissue concentrations of manganese
Photosynthetic rates, dry moss accumulation, leaf number per shoot, stem length, and tissue element concentrations were measured in Vaccinium vitis-idaea growing in tussock tundra at Toolik Lake, Alaska. Manganese concentrations of 6 800 – 12 300 μg/g dry mass in leaf tissue of V. vitis-idaea did no...
