The central hypotheses were that resprouting is dependent on root carbohydrate reserves and that very frequent topkill would progressively lower the carbohydrate reserves of a plant and eventually cause mortality. 2014-08-13T14:10:04Z 2014-08-13T14:10:04Z 2007 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/6185 eng application/pdf Department of Biological Sciences Faculty of Science University of Cape Town |
