Data are means ± standard deviations. Treatments with the same lower case letters are not significantly different from one another for the same regeneration scenario (P>0.05). Treatments with the same capital letters are not significantly different from one another for the same fertilizer treatment (P>0.05).
CO, SA, TA and MF respectively represent Lotus corniculatus, Medicago sativa, Pinus tabulaeformis and Salix matsudana–Sabina chinensis mixed forest.
CK, IN, IO and OR respectively represent no, inorganic, organic and a combination of inorganic and organic fertilizer added to soils.
