Quantification of litter in different genotypes of Eucalyptus in São Gabriel, RS, Brazil
ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate the litter production of different genotypes of Eucalyptus. An experiment was conducted in 43-month-old stands in the municipality of São Gabriel, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. For each genotype, a plot of 599.200 m was set. Fifteen samples were collected at random in each plot. The accumulated litter production ranged from 2.03 to 4.70 Mg ha-1. This number is the lowest value found in the Eucalyptus dunnii stands and the highest value in the hybrid Eucalyptus urograndis stands. The leaf fraction reached, on average, between 60% and 91% of the total litter. The various genotypes had differences in the litter deposited onto the soil top.
