Quercus pubescens and its hemiparasite Loranthus europaeus: nutrient dynamics of leaves and twigs

Original language description

Despite a long history of observations of thehemiparasitic plant, mistletoe, the mechanism of mineral movement from the host to the mistletoe is still not fully understood. In this article, we focused on the leaf development and nutrient dynamics of Loranthus europaeus and the host tree, Quercus pubescens. The nitrogen, potassium and calcium contents of leaves, current-year twigs and 1-year-old twigs were analysed. The timing of the leaf development differed between species. Leaf expansion occurred in the first 23 and 136 days, and leaf senescence took 78 and 24 days for Quercus and oranthus, respectively. The similar nitrogen concentrations per unit leaf area may indicate that both species have the same assimilation rate. The differences in nutrient accumulation seem to support the hypothesis that nitrogen is the limiting nutrient in the transpiration stream. Larger differences in the nutrient dynamics between species were revealed in the accumulation potassium and calcium. Nutrients
