Study Status: Completed
Activity Type: Monitoring
Subject/Discipline: Other
Objectives: Develop large scale vegetative propagation and seedling propagation protocols. 2) Determine the physical and biological factors significant to the establishment success f c. mazama. 3) Develop photographic monitoring protocols for long-term monitoring of populations. 4) Develop educational materials for both the general public and park personnel.
Findings and Status: No significant difference in mortality rates between seedlings and clones used for restoration. Spring planting resulted in a 10% mortality rate due to removal of plants from holes by grazing deer. No significant difference between inoculated and non-inoculated planting material. No significant difference in plant size or flower number between vegetatively propagated material and seedlings grown in a common environment.
For this study, were one or more specimens collected and removed from the park but not destroyed during analyses? No
