Abstract
Soil management focused on improving water availability is suspected of hampering fine root growth of S. tuberosa seedlings, whereas reducing soil bulk density enables better root tuber development and could, therefore, be a promising measure to increase S. tuberosa drought resistance in the long term for more successful reforestation. Disregarding its negative impact on fine root growth, we assume manure is the most promising amendment among the tested treatments, due to its positive effect on root tuber growth.
