Root regeneration was measured 1 year after transplanting. Regenerated roots were initiated primarily from the severed root ends. Norway maple showed the greatest capacity for root regeneration during this period. The availability of carbohydrates to support this new root growth was limited only during the period of active shoot growth in the early spring. Transplanting trees during this period should be avoided.}, issn = {1935-5297}, URL = {https://auf.isa-arbor.com/content/8/12/305}, eprint = {https://auf.isa-arbor.com/content/8/12/305.full.pdf}, journal = {Arboriculture \& Urban Forestry (AUF)} }
