Abstract
The photosynthetic activity of the Turkey oak (Quercus cerris L., height 22 m) and common hornbeam (Carpinus betulus L., height 17 m) in a deciduous forest stand was analysed. Trees studied grew in an uneven-aged forest (80 years old on average, main canopy surface at a height of 18 m) forming the former IBP forest research site at Bab, SW Slovakia (Czechoslovakia). The average photosynthetic rate of oak foliage was higher than that of hornbeam. (...)
