We investigated how removal of understory dwarf bamboo (Sasa kurilensisMakino et Shibata) affected growth and water use of youngBetula ermaniiCham. trees in a secondary forest in northern Japan. We compared current-year shoot morphology, leaf water-relations characteristics, and whole-tree water use ofB. ermaniitrees growing with dwarf bamboo in the understory (intact plot) to those of trees growing where dwarf bamboo was experimentally removed (removal plot). Current-year shoot length and internode frequency increased, while internode length and individual leaf area decreased in response to dwarf bamboo removal. Carbon isotope composition (δ13C) of leaves did not change indicating that leaf water-use efficiency was unaffected by the presence/absence of dwarf bamboo. Pressure–volume analysis indicated that leaves in the removal plot had lower water uptake ability. During mid-summer, trees in the removal plot sustained high sap flow velocity after peaking at midday, while that of trees in the intact plot declined. In addition, whole-tree sap flux and soil-to-leaf hydraulic conductance were both higher for trees in the removal plot. We inferred that the observed changes reflect hydraulic homeostasis ofB. ermaniitrees to maintain constant water-use efficiency in response to belowground competition with dwarf bamboo. Removal of dwarf bamboo is, therefore, an effective silvicultural prescription to enhance growth of overstory trees by relieving belowground competition for soil water.
