This study investigates the effects of nitrogen deposition and water stress on the growth and physiological responses of <i>Quercus dentata</i>, and how these factors interact to influence the overall productivity. Two-year-old potted seedlings were selected to simulate nitrogen deposition and water stress. Nitrogen was applied at rates of 0 kg·ha^-1·year^-1 (N0) and 150 kg·ha^-1·year^-1 (N150). The levels of water stress corresponded to 80% (W80), 50% (W50), and 20% (W20) of soil saturation moisture content. High nitrogen (N150) significantly increased stem elongation and stem diameter by enhancing photosynthetic parameters, including <i>P</i> <Frontiers in plant science1479563https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC11620892biostudies-literatureAdaptive growth strategies of &lt;i&gt;Quercus dentata&lt;/i&gt; to drought and nitrogen enrichment: a physiological and biochemical perspective.PMC11620892Zhang FWang QWang XGuo CWang HZhang CZhao ZZhang RXie BfalseAdaptive growth strategies of &lt;i&gt;Quercus dentata&lt;/i&gt; to drought and nitrogen enrichment: a physiological and biochemical perspective.Nitrogen deposition and drought significantly influence plant growth and soil physicochemical properties.
