摘要

Chlorosis, a significant issue affecting plane trees in urban green spaces, was the focus of this research. The aim was to investigate the effectiveness of a combined strategy involving soil amendment and feeding in reducing chlorosis and enhancing tree health. A factorial study was conducted using a randomized complete block design with four replications on plane trees in an urban setting. The study included two trunk injection (endotherapy) levels (non-injection and injection) and four fertilization techniques (control, dig-hole fertilizer, mulch, and dig-hole fertilizer + mulch), both individually and combined. The study revealed that the injection treatment played a crucial role in facilitating the absorption of essential nutrients such as iron and phosphorus, leading to increased chlorophyll levels and overall improved physical health of the plane trees. Furthermore, the combination of injection and dig-hole fertilizer and also injection and mulch resulted in enhanced iron and zinc concentrations in the leaves. During the summer, the combined application of injection, dig-hole fertilizer, and mulch significantly enhanced tree health, as evidenced by a remarkable 40% increase in total chlorophyll concentration compared to the control group. This holistic approach not only boosted chlorophyll levels but also improved the physical health of the trees over the months from June to September, with enhancements of 55%, 30%, 55%, and 69% respectively, when compared to the control treatment. Overall, the findings emphasize the importance of improving soil conditions for efficient nutrient uptake by trees in urban green spaces. Tree health significantly improved by enriching the soil with additional elements through dig-hole fertilizer and trunk injection methods.
