V. aMineral nutrition and fertilization of native tree species in Brazilbresearch progress and suggestions for management. c2005 aABSTRACT: In this review article, the progress of Brazilian research on mineral nutrition and fertilization of native tree species is discussed, taking as reference the scientific knowledge regarding the exotic species of the genera Eucalyptus and Pinus. There is a great knowledge gap in the theoretical base needed to develop technologies on nutritional management of native species. The high diversity of species, with variable or unknown responses to nutrient supply, makes difficult to set up a standardized and efficient fertilizer recommendation. Nevertheless, taking into account the successional groups and the growth rate of species, it is possible to discriminate the levels of nutritional requirement and to define differential management strategies of fertilization. Relevant aspects for future research on this line are also sugested. aPinus aÁrvore aCerrado aEucalipto aFertilidade do Solo aNutrição aPinheiro aBrasil1 aFURTINI NETO, A.
