Popis:	Singular additions of Cu, Zn and Mo had little effect on height or diameter of yellow birch growing in acid subsoil. However, dry weight of leaves was increased by Zn and dry weight of stems was increased by both Mo and Zn. In addition, several macronutrient levels in leaves and roots were increased by micronutrients, and Al in roots was decreased (by 50%). Zn was the most effective in causing these favorable changes. Application of Zn is suggested as an alternative or supplement to application of limestone in correcting these problems of yellow birch in acid subsoil.
