Responses of Tree Seedlings to the Removal of Chromolaena odorata Linn. in a Degraded Forest in GhanabackgroundThis study assesses the effects of Chromolaena odorata, a dense grass removal on native trees seedlings in a degraded dry semi-deciduous forest in Ghana. Research Goals & MethodsChromolaena odorata was removed from 50% of the plots and the other half left intact. Seedling height, the number of leaves per seedling, and seedling mortality were investigated in both released and unreleased plots immediately after the release treatment in June 1998 and again 3 months later September 1998.
