Effects of Successive Planting of Eucalyptus on Soil Physicochemical Properties 1–3 Generations after Converting Masson Pine Forests into Eucalyptus Plantations

Soil physicochemical properties play a key role in plant growth and development; however, owing to land use change and successive planting, long-term changes in soil physicochemical properties are rarely reported. The objective of this study was to analyze changes in soil physicochemical properties caused by the conversion of Masson pine forests to Eucalyptus plantations and the successive planting of first, second, and third-generation Eucalyptus plantations in China using a space-for-time substitution method. The results demonstrated significant differences in soil physicochemical properties between Masson pine forest (MP) and second-generation (G2) and third-generation (G3) Eucalyptus plantations at 0-20 and 40-60 cm soil
